On NBC News...video game reps freaking about the backlash to their violent games:

"We are not the problem, we don't teach hating and killing"
(think law abiding gunowners)

"Why isn't someone talking about the 90% of non-violent fun and educational games we make?"
(law abiding gunowners, prevented crimes due to guns)

"We shouldn't be penalized for the actions of others...its personal responsibility"
(that arguement doesn't work for law abiding gunowners...try again)

"Federal involvement threatens the 1st amendment of the Constitution!"
(hmmmmm....I think I've heard that arguement before ;))

The laughs on us, DC...the bill related to violent video games didn't make it (if I heard right). The senators said it was protected by the First Amendment - imagine that.

Its just cranking up Mikey....a new target and blood is in the water
An untapped feedlot for ambitious and arrogant politicos and greedy lawyers. Tobacco and guns were targeted this way and it all fits in snuggly with the grand scheme.

In awhile maybe the Vid folks and entertainment industry will realize that ya can't pick and choose your pet Amendment. Defend them all or lose them all.

Isn't it a shame that the liberals want to destroy our rights...when we are the only ones that would fight for theirs!

It's a sad day.
