Y'know that right to free speech that everyone keeps talking about when the government tries to introduce legislation that would fine retailers for selling games to underage kids?

That same rule applies to guys like Isett. There's nothing in that part of the constitution that says you can only speak if you know what you're talking about. These guys (and gals) are after self-promotion and they'll jump on whatever bandwagon is at the front of the parade to look like they're leading the charge.

What I want to know is this... In all these recent artcles about GTA it always seems to be about protecting the children. Children shouldn't be playing an M-rated game in the first place, so how about we put the pressure where it belongs, on the parents.

Grendal: Jacks actually a really good example of how not to deal with your mental illness and what can happen if it goes untreated
Posted 07/05/08 at 02:37pm
Grendal: Well most people with a mental illness admit it and get help instead of trolling a website for their ego ala jack

BlackIce: True, that does explain why the Patriot Act is legal, but..
Posted 07/05/08 at 02:21pm
Grendal: As far as I know theres no law banning people with mental illness from holding jobs as lawyers or judges
Posted 07/05/08 at 12:40pm
BlackIce: Sadly, the law banning Mentals from any sort of important job isn't well enforced. Therefore, Jackie is still a "Lawyer".
