NY Post Says GTA Worse Than Molesting

wiredbeat2000 writes "The New York Post has an inflammatory article which argues that Take Two's Grand Theft Auto is worse than child molestation and more harmful than second hand smoke. The story, which appears in the business section, calls for an outright ban of video games it claims are no better than snuff films, and concludes: 'Stay away from this [Take Two] stock - far, far away - and you'll be doing both your wallet and your fellow man a favor'." Lucky the author hasn't checked out Manhunt yet, huh?

    funny thing is that a friend of mine was walking in the 'shop district' of town late one night and noticed a homeless man standing in front of the victoria's secret shop, rocking back and forth slightly. at first my friend figured this guy was really, really drunk and having trouble standing up. then he realized that this guy was actually wacking off while looking at the giant-sized posters of supermodels in lingerie. i guess i never really gave much thought to where and when homeless men masturbate. now i know. do i get a +5 informative for this post?
