CNN.com - Clinton seeks video game sex scene probe
Topic: Current Events 11:29 am EDT, Jul 15, 2005

Clinton asked the Federal Trade Commission to investigate the origins of a downloadable modification that allows simulated sex in the personal computer version of one of the most popular and controversial video games in history.

"We should all be deeply disturbed that a game which now permits the simulation of lewd sexual acts in an interactive format with highly realistic graphics has fallen into the hands of young people across the country," Clinton wrote in a letter to the head of the Federal Trade Commission. (Emphasis mine)

Ok, this bullshit has got to stop. Where are all the "young people" who have received this game?

M games are rated for 17+. At age 18, I can go buy the most violent of hardcore pornography. I can buy lottery tickets, cigerettes, vote for pandering half-asses like Sen Clinton, and get my head blown off in the army.

At 18, our laws don't recognize you as a "young person," but as a fully functional and participating member of our country.

So what are we talking about here? The only young people that would get this game are people in the 1 year gap between 17 and 18, or younger kids whose parents foolish bought a Mature game for them.

The only argument people can make is the game was misleadingly labeled, causing them to purchase something more extreme then they thought. The argument is so flawed. What are these people who are pissed about being "deceived" so mad about? That they are cool giving their kids a game where they can decapiate people with a sword, shoot cops, take drugs, and bang hookers, but no no no, being able to see 2 animated characters have sexing is just too much! That is as hypocritical as it is horrible parenting.

This is utterly a waste of my governments time.
