"patently offensive to prevailing standards in the adult community as a whole with respect to what is suitable material for minors”
I find Republican politicians offensive and unsuitable for human beings (never mind children). Lets ban the GOP!

Hogue has welcomed the new result, commenting that: "It's more than a message bill…This is a bill that identifies the effects that different media has on our children."
What kind of rubbish is that? That's not even intelligible. First of all, bills do not indentify any effects anything has on something else. That would be scientific studies. The only message this bill is sending is that if you have enough stupid @#!*ing morons on your side, you can get even the most insane, rediculous, unintelligible, ill-concieved, absurd, irrational bull@#!* passed as a law.

What was wrong with parents ensuring that the kids abide by the ESA ratings in the first place?
Because these Republican @#!*wits son't know what the word 'Responsability' means. These are the kind of morons who honestly believe that fear of god is the only reason people behave halfway decently.

Remember 3000 years ago when Aristotle reasoned that "I have gained this by philosophy: that I do without being commanded what others do only from fear of the law."? That's pretty much the primal train of thought these rightwing religious nutjobs are stuck in.
