Lawmakers propose bill to ID people buying games to make sure they won’t be ruined for life

So you know how all those people have been up in arms about the adult content in games like GTA IV? And how they think that the ratings need to be tougher? A few politicians don’t think they go far enough. They want to actually start using retail cashiers to police who buys what, IDing people when they purchase to make sure they’re of age.
I’m OK with this for cigarettes and alcohol, but for a game? Games aren’t dangerous, but I guess someone has to think about the children. Or, how about if they go about the real work of congressmen, trying to end the war, feed the homeless, and fixing our gas prices?
Yes, Lee Terry (R-Neb.) and Jim Matheson (D-Utah), I’m talking to you. STFU & GBTW.

I think I got ID’d when I bought it, I thought that’s what they were SUPPOSED to do?

Lucky you I sent my kid brother in the store to buy it while I waited in the car Walmart tried to upsell him to the collectors edition for 90 instead. My lil bro doesnt look a day over 12.

ya this is and should be the only solution to this “problem” of these “terrible” games we play.
its no different from movies.
would a theater let a 7 yr old go see a rated R movie? usually not.
but no one freaks out and goes to the government or pulls down ads when theres some boob action in a movie!
