Hey, gamers, now is the time to stand up for the hobby/culture you hold dear.
If you've been following the news lately, you already know that the question of whether games count as free speech is set to be decided by the United States Supreme Court this fall. Specifically, the court will rule on whether a law in California that punishes retailers for selling "adult" games to children passes Constitutional muster. Should the Supreme Court uphold the California law, it would place games in a separate class from books, movies and other forms of expression, and essentially allow states to make laws that govern/censor video games' content. We can't have that, and the Entertainment Consumers Association is doing something about it.
these people just dont know when to quit. every generation has some new thing that the government feels needs to be controlled, and it seems to work out just fine in the long run anyways. censorship is bad, plain and simple, and movies and books often have much more objectionable content in them.
When in doubt, burn it down.
