Where Politics And Video Games Collide

"We have to stop thinking about their civil rights and start thinking about their mental development" (or something like this)

What the hell? This sounds a lot like what they're trying to pull on us now, and the last time I checked, this was still America, the land of EQUAL opportunity. So what, do you magically turn into an upstanding citizen the day you turn 18 and before that you're just a stupid, little monkey? Frank Zappa is awesome in this video (I think I have a new hero) and he really shoves it to the Maryland delegates. One point I think he should have said was that the bill essentially says that ALL sex is "illicit." Makes me wonder if those delegates have children, because if they did, then by their own messed up standards they are criminals.

"This [rock and roll] is the worst form of child abuse out there..."

Um...I wonder if some kid out there whose parents are whipping his ass and beating him half to death because they're out of booze would think that that is better than listening to rock and roll. Essentially, this is what the bills that JT and some of the states are trying to say. Politicians need to learn to actually shut the hell up and think about what they are trying to say before they actually open up their mouths and say dumb stuff like this.

This video really irritates me in how politicians have learned shit in 20 years. We need another Frank Zappa to go out there and publicly refute the false words of the dumb politicians who seek to persecute the gaming community the way all arts have been throughout the years. "Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it." We already have many precedents before us, the book burnings in China, the destruction of so many sculptures and paintings throughout history, the criticisms and censorship of the film industry, and the censorship of the music industry. We don't need another media format to be censored by the idiotic masses who believe anything the government spits at them. We have to speak out against the people who attack games before they actually manage to get lucky enough to pass one. If they pass something, it will set a precedent against the game industry, but apparently, no matter how many times the game industry wins, no precedent will ever be set for them.
