Your birthday's May 9 too?

This is the first one.... duncan_922 February 17 2006, 15:23:08 UTC

That I've seen suggesting this: "In addition, such games would need to be displayed in an area not accessible to minors"

That's extreme! I know companies pay a good premium for shelf space. You can bet this one will be driven to the ground!

I didn't think of that... Kinda like the back room at small video stores! hehehe I can just imagine going to a game store, waiting for the clerck to be free then asking him to "see the back room". Then asking him to put whatever game I pick up in a paper bag.

I've never been so ashamed to live in North Carolina. {sniffle} Ah well, at least it can't stand.

Yeah, but it's hard to deal with politicians who support 1 thing you like and oppose something else you like.

Personally, I'm glad the lottery is here finally. Of course, there's a bumpy toad ahead for it with all its controversy (where the money is actually going).

Still, if this bill passes, I may have to file for violations of the ADA as I am a video gamer and legally blind, unable to see specific items behind the counter or high up. While stores have their own policies regarding such, a lawmaker who specifically designs a law that would discriminate against me would definitely get a response.

Maybe it's time to finally put my MetLaw insurance into effect. I've been paying on it now for some time but haven't even gotten with a lawyer about a will. I think it's time I looked into it.

I'm ashamed of this one as well. I happen to know a House Representative and he is going to hear about this. Although not sure how much voice he has.
