Whereas videogaming has proven to cause social, ethical and health problems in people of all ages,

 

Whereas sexual perversion and homosexuality are threatening to destroy the Christian foundations on which this nation was built,

 

Whereas a new video game has just been created that far exceeds any others in the psychological and spiritual damage it does to teens,

 

We, the American people, today ask you,

 

1) To enact an immediate ban on the videogame known as "SkyRim" produced by Blizzard Entertainment.

 

2) To seize and destroy all copies already in public hands and erase its presence on the internet.

 

3) To prosecute the players of "SkyRim" to the fullest extent of the law.

 

4) To create a national database of videogame avatars and "screen names" so that teenagers can be better monitored.

 

 

LOL!!! I'm pretty sure its someone trolling the USG. :thumbsup:

 

Take a look at some of the signatures, LOL.

Wow! That's hilarious. Some people never studied American history and have no clue what this country stands for. Thomas Jefferson would've slapped these people.

@Denina That's not hilarious, it's actually sad.

I meant the visual of Thomas Jefferson slapping these people is hilarious. The people themselves are actually pretty pathetic. I guess I should've changed my phrasing slightly. I can't be perfect every day.

Erm, when did beth buy blizzard? Or vice versa?

 

Actually, sad to say, something like this wouldn't surprise me at all that it was genuine. This is america after all, land of fruits and nuts.....

Obvious troll is obvious. But good luck to come other side of the planet to destroy my copy, or removing non-american internet pages about skyrim.
