GA Proposes Restricting Game Sales to Minors

HarryCaul writes "The Georgia Legislature has a bill proposing the restriction of sales of video games to minors. This bill is independent of the voluntary ratings in that it would prohibit the sale of "especially heinous, atrocious or cruel" games to children. Another bill from the same legislator would take the more reasonable step of requiring stores to post a sign explaining the video game rating system. From the article: "The video game proposal is one of several like it being introduced across the country. Lawmakers in North Carolina, Illinois and Michigan are among those considering similar measures."

My mom has nothing to do with it either, being that i'm talking about my Little Brother's mom (as in Big Brothers; you know, volunteer work). What is the problem with releasing two different versions of any given game? How is that impeding your "enjoyment" of the game with the neck-breaking and all, and my LB's enjoyment of the game without such gore and blood?

BTW, it takes a big man to swear at somebody on the Internet. You must feel very proud at yourself right about now.
