HJR15.
The non-binding resolution, introduced by Rep. Scott Wyatt (R), was unanimously passed by the committee. Download an audio file of the four-minute hearing

I also like the "And he's going to soon be her ex-husband because he's addicted to pornography, and these video games were a gateway for him."
Gail.... shut up....
And, like any ghost, it's probably going to do a fair bit of haunting before it's laid to rest (to extend my metaphor to it's logical limit).
The passing of HJR15 says, quite literally, "we'd control these evil machines if we could, but the Constitution's the only thing keeping us from doing it." While Utah may not be physically capable of doing anything to assist the other states in their fight against video games, a second attempt at similar legislation that the AG et al. deem to be reasonably constitutional will probably hit the assembly running. A strong indication of the mindset of our civic leaders nation-wide, I fear.
