What a dumb bitch.
\_ She's a bitch regardless, but only dumb if she can't win.
\_ I remember back when Tipper Gore and the PMRC were pulling all their
idiotic shenanigans over explicit song lyrics. Remember when Dee
Snyder and Frank Zappa came in and made them all look stupid? Where
are the heroic game designer equivalents of those musicians?
Who will reveal Hillary Clinton and Orrin Hatch to be the
grandstanding tools that they are?
\_ I haven't seen anything by Hatch, what did he say?
\_ Sigh. Google Orrin Hatch video games. Like the War On Drugs,
the War On Indecent Anything is a bipartisan fallacy. All
politicians love to grandstand.
\_ Well I like how the article never mentions the obvious, uh what's
the right phrase here? anyway that the game was already rated
"Mature (17+)" and these idiots are buying it for kids. And they
are so concerned about essentially harmless sex scenes that a kid
cannot see without specifically looking for how to access it and
then using a 3rd party patch/tool, whereas with far less effort
he can type "lolitas" into google, or whatever, and furthermore
they couldn't care less about the game's extreme violence. Fuck
'em.

Sen. Danforth: "There is nothing on the face of the album which would
notify you if the record has pornographic material or
material glorifying violence?"
Tipper Gore: "No, there is nothing that would suggest that to me."
Frank Zappa: "I would say that a buzz saw blade between the guy's
legs on the album cover is good indication that it's
not for little Johnny."
-- The Senate Commerce Committee hearing on rock
lyrics, from The Village Voice, 6 Oct 1985
\_ Have you at least played through 50% of the game?
Don't tell me, "I haven't but I know what's going on Hillary's a
dumb bitch!!1!" or "I only saw it at a friend's house".
\_ No, Hillary is a very smart and venal bitch. -- ilyas
\_ as opposed to dubya being ...
\_ I am sorry what does this entire thread have to do with
Bush? -- ilyas

\_ by presenting one fact without another highly related
fact, there is the perception of misleading information.
For example, the statement, "The CIA's judgment is that
there are no WMDs in Iraq" is true. However, you
need to specify also, "But at the time Dubya made
the decision, the CIA's judgement was there were WMDs
in Iraq". Withou the 2nd sentence, there is the
perception of misleading information ... an incomplete
picture not including critical elements.
It's what lawyers do everyday anyway.
\_ But that's not what pp said. He brought up Bush
because I said a Bad Thing about Hillary. -- ilyas
\_ That's 'cause we all know you're a BUSH LOVER,
ilya.
\_ Yes, I am apparently an administration
apologist. -- ilyas
\_ Yes. Motd says you are. Now go stand in the
corner and hang your head in shame. -motd
\_ Actually yes, I have. What is your point? I was actually
referring to the old woman plaintiff but as for Hillary I'm
gonna go with ilyas' assessment. GTA is definitely a "mature"
game but it has nothing on a lot of R rated movies. For example
the movie "Colors".
\_ being able to control my rate of screwing and vary my sexual
positions among 5 different virtual girlfriends while viewing
it with sound effects in an MA+-rated product from arguably
the most popular software publisher (Rockstar) using an
easily downloadable and well-known activation mod is
revolutionary (not to mention the simulated oral sex)!
\_ You should sue women for having hidden sexual body parts.
