More of the usual entertainment by the righties

"They bring law school minds to a subject that requires practical experience."

What the heck is that even supposed to mean? The majority of the court are Right Wing hacks who have no problem pleasing you with rulings on a host of issues in which neither you nor they have any "practical experience".

"Does anyone believe Thomas Jefferson could have foreseen a day when violent images of the worst sort ought to be protected by the First Amendment?"

How about this... Does anyone believe Thomas Jefferson could have foreseen the day when an empty shell in the shape of a man like you, Cal, would be given a forum to propagandize for the benefit of oligarchs, demonize the poor, cheer-lead illegal wars and defend the use of torture while also having the temerity to lecture us on your umbrage at offensive video games.

Bizarro World.

Does anyone believe Thomas Jefferson could have forseen that one political persuasion, the liberal left, would almost completely dominate and control all forms of the news, newspapers, TV, and magazines, to the detriment of our nation?

More evidence of the declining morals in America, no leadership what so ever.
When the politicians have no morals what else can we expect?
Garbage in and garbage out.
There are many wonderful video games out there that don't rely on violence.
Cal is absolutely correct, this is not a perfect world and a lot of parents, especially single mothers could use occassional help from the state on these issues.
These extreme violent movies are not in the best interest of adults let alone children.
Thomas Jefferson would turn over in his grave!
Fine letter Cal.

Relax old man. Just as I have the right to slaughter pixels, you have the right to pray to what ever fairy tale book you want. The same Amendment that protects violent video games also protects your silly little religion.... unfortunately.

Yesser, you have the right to be Godless and insult people that actually believe in something. You must be proud.

Not proud, but entertained. While the comment section around these here parts have become a strong-hold of the Religious Right, there's still fun to be had.

Anyways, if your faith is so solid, the words of a godless heathen shouldn't bother you. And yet you took the time to comment... hrm.
