I'm against it... it's not the governments job to tell me how to raise my children. It's also not their job to tell me what I can and can't play, what I can and can't see, and when I can't and can't play/see it.

Government needs to get the fuck out of my personal life...

[KeithHybrid]

Utah officially sucks.

[Xavierthewarlord]

Ugh. I cant wait untill he Dies. The black cloud that shrouds the gaming industry will be gone forever.

...And the excuse GTA taught the person who got arrested to aim for the head? No shit. 'Durr, Brain controlls all actions and functions of the body.. In head.. I SHULD AIM AT NUTZ LOLOLOL!!!1'

Dumbasses.

[KeithHybrid]

Those that supported the bill also made reference to sex scenes in Grand Theft Auto IV and took the "won't somebody please think of the children" tact.

Fuck the children! Ruin my gaming, will you?

Untill they just ask their parents to take their money and buy the game for them.

This is an injustice to America.

Violent games are for terrorists.

History has shown that nobody has ever shot and killed another human being until after the existance of video games.

If you think otherwise, you've been lied to. Liek the Holocaust... lies. Just a terrible rummor that was started after video games corrupted the minds of our children. Nobody like Hitler could ever exist unless they where raised on GTA games, it's a proven, undisputable, scientific fact.

[Chumbawamba]

I don't see too much change coming from this. Most stores ask for ID when purchasing an M-rated game or R-rated movie anyway. Besides... kids shouldn't be playing any video games at all. Oh, I went there.

[xscoot]

As someone else pointed out, why is Jack Thompson holding a copy of GTAIV? Wouldn't that kill him?

[Fezz]

Like anyone gives a shit about Utah. Seriously.

[SockMyDink]

WILL SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN?!?!

WHEN WILL SOMEONE FINALLY THINK OF THE CHILDREN?!?!

Jack Thompson is a douche.

[malachi117]

Wait, so they passed a bill that makes them check for ID, like they already do.

Good job.

I'm really not surprised that it happened there. Don't most of America's Mormons live there? I'm pretty sure they dislike stuff like this, so I can see why this got passed.

I'd track him down and beat him up, but that would only further his point that videogames are raping our childrens' minds.
Oh, and couldn't retailers just make it their policy to not care about ESRB ratings? It does, after all, say they only get fined if they violate store policy by doing so.
Of course, the actual bill probably is written more carefully than that.
Oh well, I'm off to go play DOOM, Fallout 3, and Left 4 Dead, just to spite ole' Jack.

You never know with those hardcore Christian types. Remember the Witch Hunt or the Crusades?

[Republican1235]

is there any sane human being who likes Jack Thompson?

[Stretchysumo]

We need assasination, NOW.
At least I don't live in Utah.

I'm guessing his mother, but even that's not 100% certain.
