Well just spent an hour or two watching Cspan's live coverage of
video game violence and a conference to discuss what to do about it.
And I must say, it would appear that things might be looking a little
bleak. Lets just say they praised nintendos censoring
policy and didnt have much faith in the rating policy of sega.
Ahh, and I thought the days of banning stuff was over....
Thank your stars DOOM comes out tommorow, another month
or two and who knows what the game would be like.....

If you'll look to see who is in the forefront of this movement, I don't think you'll see too many conservatives. Most of them are liberal Democrats (and a few liberal Republicans). I definately would call this a LIBERAL movement, not a conservative one!

If it was a conservative movement, these games would be reclassified as vital to government security, and would only be used as part of a CIA plot to overthrow South American regimes not supportive of U.S. big business. =========================================================================== Earle M.

Most of them are liberal >Democrats (and a few liberal Republicans). I definately would call this a >LIBERAL movement, not a conservative one! Absolutely. At least two of our government's three branches are Democrat controlled and the third is at best split. "Labeling Madness" started 7 or so years ago with the PMRC and Tipper Gore who is now...you guessed it...the second lady (is that the correct term). Democrats and the left are doing this, and it is not to "protect our children" but to gain a higher level of control over yet another industry.
