Judge Blocks Louisiana Violent Games Law

kukyfrope writes "A Baton Rouge federal judge has today issued a temporary injunction against Louisiana's violent games law that Governor Kathleen Blanco just signed last week. According to local newspaper The Advocate, U.S. District Judge James Brady issued the injunction just hours after the Entertainment Software Association and Entertainment Merchants Association filed the lawsuit in Louisiana. "How would a person assess whether a particular video game appeals to a minor's 'morbid interest in violence'? And what constitutes a 'patently offensive' depiction of violence? Persons of ordinary intelligence are forced to guess at the meaning and scope of the act," said New Orleans attorney James A. Brown"

...that makes me think we did the rest of the country an enormous disservice by not allowed the South to secede. I suggest we correct that mistake by putting the ol' secession bug back up the asses of ignorant Southerners everywhere, then just giving 'em a big wave 'goodbye!' when they declare their independence. With any luck most of the other extremists in the country will take the opportunity to move to the new Christian States of America and the rest of us will breathe one big sigh of relief.
