Hillary and Joe - a match made in hell.
New regulation proposed to punish retailers for selling M-rated games to minors.
What the fucking fuck? Do you honestly think that Hillary would have the balls to do this to an industry whose members are actually liberals? Last I knew, there was no restriction on the sales of explicit CDs to minors. No jail time for Best Buy clerks that don’t get ID from the 14 year old trying to buy that unrated version of “American Pie 2″.
Talk about your double standards. Although it WAS a liberal that got the labels on music in the first place, the lefties never had the balls to push it any farther than labels. And the label became sort of a “Good Housekeeping seal-of-approval”, where you could be certain to get naughty words on discs with the little sticker on them.
So now these idiots in Congress, who don’t know a Playstation from a gas station, want to tell retailers “You’re gonna be in trouble if you sell these naughty games to kidlets”.
Well, if you want to do that, then let’s go all the way, eh? How about prison time for a parent that buys a game like this for their minor child. Let’s add an additional restriction - you can’t buy the game if there’s a minor child in the house! After all, if limiting exposure to the video game is the goal, then shouldn’t we make absolutely certain that these games aren’t present in houses where minors could access them? Oh, and video game storage safes. Can’t keep the kids TOO safe, right?
In fact, why don’t we go to every house in America, and if they have minors AND violent video games, then tell the parents that they can pick which one they want to give up!
Politicians. I have no use for them. Note to Donald Trump: Next time you’re in DC, could you stop by the Russell building and just do your whole schtick for each member of the Senate? Better yet, I’d pay real money if you’d do it while they were in session, right on the Senate floor. On C-SPAN 2. “You’re Fired!”
That would be great. And it might get these preening assholes to leave my games alone.
