Here are five more photos from the real "Rally to Restore Sanity," taking place outside the Supreme Court – no offense to Jon Stewart intended. Thanks to everyone that took time out of their busy schedules to support free speech, video games, and gamers in America (thanks to our own Matthew Olschan for sending these in).

Re: MORE ECA SCOTUS Rally Photos
Holy crap, even Mario himself showed up!
Re: MORE ECA SCOTUS Rally Photos
That's me and my fiancee in the first picture there. Some of the other people who were in the crowd were some British students who happened to be on a tour and wanted to join in. They were really cool. We can always count on our friends across the pond to lend us a hand.
Incidentally, I spotted one of them wearing an Iron Maiden T-shirt. Reflexively I threw up the horns and yelled, "Yeah! Maiden!"

Enough pictures, where is the summary? I want meat. Give me meat.

Re: MORE ECA SCOTUS Rally Photos
Best I've seen so far is in the WSJ:
---
"Some of the Grimm's Fairy Tales are quite grim," Justice Scalia told an attorney for California. "Are they OK? Are you going to ban them, too?"
"What about films? What about comic books?" asked Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. "Why are videogames special?"
---
BOOM.
I'm feeling pretty good about this one.
Re: MORE ECA SCOTUS Rally Photos
Right now, it looks like it will end up 6-3 for EMA/ESA as some of us predicted, just looks like you can replace Roberts for Scalia in the majority for EMA/ESA(I'm not sold on Alito switching sides just yet).
Geaux Saints, Geaux Tigers, Geaux Hornets, Jack Thompson can geaux chase a chupacabra. Hell will stay frozen over for quite a while since the Saints won the Super Bowl.
Geaux Saints, Geaux Tigers, Geaux Hornets. Solidarity for the Saints = No retreat, no surrender. Even through the darkest days, this fire burns always.

GP may have it up later today
Watching JT on GP is just like watching an episode of Jerry springer only as funny as the fights
America has just became its own version of the Jerry Springer Show after a bizarre moment in Florida involving a carnival worker.
