    You Ignorant fucks!

    The video game indsutry is solely responsible for every bad deed done
    by anyone under 21! The Video Game "community" are all hethenisitic
    dyke liberal gang members!

    The Japanese are doing far worse than they ever did to us at Pearl Harbor
    allowing this godless filth onto our hallowed land! Kids are helpless to
    resist the lures of these MURDER SIMULATORS! I will sue every gamer and
    game maker on the planet to insure my religious beliefs are upheld and to
    ensure that no parent ever have to take any kind of personal responsability!

    Charity? Please! These peons are nothing! I donate several 10's of dollars a
    year to charity, and my money isn't BLOOD MONEY! They are merely trying to
    make sure the next generation of children are as demented as these perverts are!
    Anyone who responds negativly to my rant will be arrested and sued, in an order
    to be determined later.
