from TG daily.Young-looking New Yorkers will have to show ID to buy violent video games if New York State Representative Keith Wright has his way. Wright has authored State Assembly Bill A00547 which would require anyone appearing to be under 30 years old to show identification to buy a violent or sexually-explicit game. It would also mandate adult only sections in video game stores.
Basically this bill states that anyone who looks younger than 30 gets carded to make sure they are at least 18 if they want to buy "video games that glamorize commission of violent crimes, suicide, sodomy and other violent or sexual acts."
When I saw the title of the article I expected to get offended, but honestly, this doesn't sound so bad except for the whole discriminating against Video games in legislation. There are currently no similar LAWS covering movies, music, books, or any other form of entertainment media.
So chalk me up as irritated but not yet angry. Where do you stand on this issue?
