Re: Rumor: Kerry & Edwards Want to Ban SEIV
I'm a liberal (well I vote liberal, I'm not a party member) and I'm not against SEIV or wargames.

Kerry is a war hero. He at least deserves respect for that.

Re: Rumor: Kerry & Edwards Want to Ban SEIV
There are some slasher, torture and rape games in circulation (not sold over the counter anywhere I think) which are stretching the “freedom of speech” a bit far according to my taste.

Re: Rumor: Kerry & Edwards Want to Ban SEIV
yes: wargames and simulations are ok
NO: I hear of sex games (though I've never seen any) which I see no need for.

Re: Rumor: Kerry & Edwards Want to Ban SEIV
Being "in favor of" could mean that some reporter asked "Would you be in favor of limiting the sales of graphically violent games to children" and they answered "yes".
Thats quite abit off from a bill being brought to the houses for a vote. Its the wording of such bills that need to be watched. Definetly, if you see anything along those lines, let us know. We might need a letter-writing campaign. I know of alot of companys, game communitys, newsGroups, and wargaming conventions that would be VERY interested in making sure that such a bill doesnt slip thru unnoticed.
