Got to love it when video games are always to blame for dumbest shit and is always the first form of entertainment to get the finger pointed at it. I am not American so what prevents me from going out of State to grab the game if I live in a border town and what’s to stop me from ordering it off of Amazon or Ebay. Are you going to train the cops to arrest my ass because I went to Wal Mart or Best Buy in another State to grab GTA? Are you going to get every package from Amazon or as a gift from my grandmother x rayed to see if the package has GTA in it? Or are you going to train a dog to sniff out a package that has GTA in it? No seems like a real waste of cash to do all that just to block me from buying a game. Yet kids see more violence on tv and movies but yet they get the ok card I watched Robocop as a kid saw Murphy lose his had I have not gone out and done dumb violent shit. It’s not the violence from video games that make people go out and do dumb shit it’s the idiot who thinks it’s a good idea to go out and do the violent shit. I can understand a person playing a violent video game and ignoring a crying kid and then slaps the kid to shut up. It’s not the games fault it’s the idiot who holds the controller who is at fault. It just like a gun it’s not the guns fault for killing someone it’s the dumbass who shot the gun who is at fault.
This pattern is getting old and stale every so many years blame video games light that torch grab those pitch forks then after a while it fizzles out. Then after so many years blame the video games again light those torches grab those pitch forks again then it fizzles out again. Wash, rinse, repeat this bill will most likely not pass because of one thing the tax money the government will make from that purchase of that game whether physical or digital. And that’s the last thing any greedy government stooge wants to do is cut off any source of tax revenue. And they will see people will go out of State or go some where else to buy that banned game and that other State will get the tax dollars. And they don’t want that or have people doing that.
