Ill.
Governor to Appeal Video Game Ruling reports that a federal judge has ruled
unconstitutional Illinois' recently passed law that banned the sale of violent
or sexually explicit video games to minors: SPRINGFIELD, Ill. - Gov. Rod
Blagojevich vowed to appeal a federal judge's ruling that shot down a new
Illinois law banning the sale of violent or sexual video games to minors.
U.S. District Court Judge Matthew Kennelly ruled Friday that Illinois'
restrictions are unconstitutional and barred the state from enforcing the law.
The Democratic governor and other supporters of the measure have argued that
children were being harmed by exposure to games in which characters go on
killing sprees or sexual escapades.
"This battle is not over," Blagojevich said in a statement. "Parents should be
able to expect that their kids will not have access to excessively violent and
sexually explicit video games without their permission."
Kennelly said state officials came "nowhere near" demonstrating that the law
passes constitutional muster.
Opponents had declared the law a restriction on free speech and pointed out that
similar laws had been struck down in other states.

I don't see a reason to spam his email. What we do here should be left here. That's why I don't go looking for that kind of profile stuff. I made a link to it the other day. I know it's there. If I were a real stalker, I'd read through all 963 of his posts & find out his name & other information from his previous communications. The insult war has nothing to do with anything. It's just a way for us to laugh at each other. It's like playing knuckles or mercy. No one wins but it's still fun.
The only thing I do know for a fact right now is that Batman is ugly. But that's the only thing you can count on right now. I'm very high on some liquid. But I do know that Batman is ugly. He probably has a car, house, wife, and all that stuff. But when I come down, I'll be sober, and he'll still be ugly.
