We're not living in a utopia, but we still are very socially liberal compared to the rest of human history.
I suggest you be careful with who you vote for in 2008 then, because you're about to lose them...

Euhm that's not bull****, that's smart. A whole lot smarter than banning games all togheter.
I mean you can't rent certain type of movies when you are below a certain age, why would you be able to rent/buy any type of movie when you are say 12 years old or something.
Lol, somehow I doubt he actually wrote that, if sites like CSNation and Gtaforums are the only sources on it... Ya gatta learn to be more sceptical people!
Even if he is IS a major a-hole, he is a lawyer after all, so no way would he open himself to the kind of lawsuit that letter would get him into. Regrettably, he's not *that* stupid...

So how do you explain your hidden lust for female dark elves? OH NO I'VE SAID TOO MUCH!
He, himself, originally posted it on Kotaku (along with other such letters if you'll note his post history).

Seriously, don't insult my site. Thanks..
Does treating everyone else like they were idiots too make the morons less moronic?
...but it would be up to the authorities to prove that I would be taking away from their personal freedom by prohibiting my kid to play games I'd feel were inapropriate for him/her...
There is no government in the world that doesn't restrict personal freedom to a certain degree. That's just the way it is and it's okay too or else you'd be living in anarchism. The question is where to draw the line.
Ok, so you now you're telling me a famous lawyer and conservative christian has an account on Kotaku and makes regular comments on the articles? Kotaku is a major site for sure, but *come on*...
If you're going to insult my site, at least make note that we haven't really been a dedicated CS site for months now, probably over a year actually. We've been covering Steam games and, more recently, all FPS games in general. I could run a site on dog breeding and still find this guy to be a complete and total moron. The only people who don't think that are the like minded (read: close minded) extreme Christian conservatives, and some people in the news media who lap up anything that's piddled on the floor in front of them for hours at a time, if for no other reason than to jump on a bandwagon to try and pick up an extra viewer or two.Shadrach said:I wasn't trying to insult, it was more like suggesting that sites dedicated to 'violent' video games like CS or GTA might not be the most unbiased source when it comes to the doings of Jack Thompson. That is all.
Yeah surelol, you again. Basically you're saying "I'm not free, and I'm fine with that". You're a sock puppet of the government. No offense.
Yeah sure
Because I don't see the evil government lurking around every corner like you do. Guys like you crack me up: Your so convinced that every single action taken by the government or some other institution is meant to limit your freedom or make your life worse in some other way.
