Proposed CA Laws to Reclassify Violent Video Games

cybermox writes "There are two laws (AB1792 and AB1793) up for committee approval next week in the California State Assembly that seek to reclassify violent video games in a manner similar to pornography (1792) and require retailers to display Mature rated games separately from other games (1793). The IGDA trade body has a document opposing the bill in its anti-censorship advocacy page." Update: 04/09 02:22 GMT by S : Reuters is also covering support for the bill among "elected officials, religious leaders and civic activists", who "rallied across California on Thursday" - we've previously covered the introduction of this proposed legislation.

    Good Bye Horses my love. Dedicated to kewsh

    You told me, I see you rise
    But, it always falls
    I see you come, I see you go
    You say, All things pass into the night
    And I say, Oh no sir I must say you're wrong
    I must disagree, oh no sir, I must say you're wrong
    Won't you listen to me
    You told me, I've seen it all before
    Been there, I've seen my hopes and dreams
    A lying on the ground
    I've seen the sky just begin to fall
    And you say, All things pass into the night
    And I say, Oh no sir, I must say you're wrong
    I must disagree, oh no sir, I must say you're wrong
    Won't you listen to me
    Good-bye horses I'm lying over you
    Good-bye horses I'm lying over you
