Federal GTA Lawsuit [Jan 01, 2004, 3:35 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Suit seeks to ban sales of popular video game (thanks Mike Martinez): "A
lawsuit by Haitian groups that asks for the top-selling video game 'Grand Theft
Auto: Vice City' to be removed from store shelves will be decided in federal
court. " Also,
Give Back Take Two (thanks Hump and Steve Nutley) has complaints from The
New York Post about GTA, apparently making the case for how depicting
violence in a game is worse than molestation: "This is 10,000 times worse than
the worst thing anybody thinks Michael Jackson ever did to a little boy."
"The best economy in two decades."
You're an idiot. Spending time refuting this is akin to arguing with a wall.
"Middle Eastern( Libya and soon Iran) contries giving up their WOMDs and moving towards democracy."
Libya hasn't givin up shit yet (assuming they have anything besides a bare bones program and a desire to develop nukes). Likewise with Iran. I guess we'll just ignore Israel, India, and Pakistan and the nukes they have because it'll make your little sound bite less sexy.
"Two countries (so far) freed from mass-murdering( Saddam killed 400,000 of his own people. Guess that doesn't bother some folks) dictators."
Oh right, like we really give one fuck about the Iraqi people. Were was this when Rwandan Tutsi's were being rounded up and executed. While airlifting our citizens out we didn't even bring Rwandans employed by Western governments in their embassies & consulates. Nice touch! For something more current check out a member of our "coalition of the willing", Uzbekistan. The guy in charge there makes Mr. Hussein look warm and fuzzy. Don't pretend we were in there to bring democracy to the people. The "reason" offered by the government was chemical and nuclear weapons we haven't found. That's a whole other discussion right there.
"Yup. The right sure screwed things up."
Yup. Just look at North Korea. I wonder if we'll even pretend to consider the current offer from NK. Nahhhh.
"mass-murder"
We covered this one.
"sexual oppression"
Haha. Three words. Sanctity of Marrage.
"a failed US economy"
I wouldn't blame the economy on either major party but the current administration has not helped....well at least not helped the lower or middle income families.
"religious oppression"
See the arguing with the wall analogy.
"wealth hording"
Again the wall provides more stimulating debate.
"unstable governments who support terrorism with WOMDs."
Pick a name from some countries up there. Almost anyone will do.
Feel free to direct any response to the affor mentioned wall. I'm sure the two of you will have a real meeting of the minds.
