"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."

Seems legit. I wish I could sign in. Just because I have a crappy PC :P

I have no words for this.

...none whatsoever.

And at some point someone's going to post the "FUS RO DAH" meme, but I'll pass, thanks.

Okay, I admit the unusual member of the Dark Brotherhood might have been a little over-the-top, but it's nothing new. In fact, I think there was a film a while back called Let Me In that shared similar undertones.

Is this about the non-restricted marriage thing? Do they know what a pain in the arse coding that OUT would have been?

I think this is a joke/troll petition (i.e. the people are making a modest proposal perhaps based on the earlier parody article about Skyrim aliasalpha linked to in his thread). :)

yeah I noticed that as well. :) Again I *think* this is a parody - the trouble is there really are people who do go to this extreme and so it becomes hard to tell sometimes.

Are you implying that Clavicus V. from Cincinnati, OH is not for this petition? Only because he has his own plane of Oblivion (Ohio) he can still have an opinion!

What do you mean? Do you think that the lusty Argonian maid didn't actually sign that thing? Come on! You know Argonians have a thing against Nords!
