What a dirty little fascist rat bastard!

Scum like that should be kidnapped by hooded thugs, stripped of all material posessions and unceremoniously dumped in some savage south american jungle. At night.

Let's see them worry about things like nudity in computer games then.

Although there is no sex in the game, characters appear nude when carrying out activities such as taking a shower. Their breasts and genitals are blurred out to avoid offence - but Thompson claimed hackers can get around this by using a cheat code.

GET. A. FUCKING. LIFE. MR. TALIBAN

Thompson goes on to compare Lowenstein with the leader of Nazi Germany, writing: "When Hitler invaded Russia, opening up an Eastern offensive on the eve of winter, Britain's Prime Minister Winston Churchill noted that 'Hitler must have been rather loosely educated, not having learned the lesson of Napoleon's autumn advance on Moscow."

"Your Doug Lowenstein is similarly 'loosely educated' about the United States Constitution."

BWAHAHAHAHA

what is it with americans? sex = bad. graphic violence = yeah sure no problem

You know... The gaming company could make an argument stating that it is possible to go through a saturday morning kids cartoon and with the proper tools you could edit it to show nudity. So should we now place a 18+ rating to pokemon?

Yeah, that's our Puritanical roots, alive and well in retarded Christian fundamentalists. At least you lot had the brains to hound them out of Merrye Auld England.

our christian fundamentalists used to burn people at the stake for heresy and witchcraft, then we sent them to new england and massachusetts. now their descendents chase after videogame makers.

Focus on the Family has a Canadian branch near here. I worry their brand of lunacy could take hold in the Great white north.

Odd that they would open the branch here though, you'd think they would've went with Alberta instead.
