Six People Against SkyRim
So get this, not only can you start a petition on the White House website if you’re 13 or older but one person has taken that right to a herp derp extreme. Apparently they want to ban “SkyRim” by Blizzard Entertainment. Blizzard has a game called SkyRim? Do Bethesda’s lawyers know this and are they suing? Oh brother. In all seriousness, it’s obvious they are trying to get attack the newly released Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Not only has this person not used google to check his facts but he thinks video game and video gaming are one word (videogame, videogaming).
Oh you want to prosecute the players of SkyRim? Well, i’m not playing SkyRim, I’m playing Skyrim. Good luck with prosecuting anyone playing that made up game of yours! People like this just really get under my skin, in the bad way, and make me chuckle. It’s terrible how ignorant and lazy people are these days. This petition just makes my faith in humanity lessen even more than it has.
If you don’t like a game you do not have to buy it. If you are a parent you need to keep track of what your children are playing. Don’t just think the government and the video game companies will do everything for you. Get your lazy butts off your cheap Wal-Mart chairs and be a parent. It’s people like this guy and parents who think the government should solve all of their problems that make me sick.
Here’s the petition if you want a quick laugh:
WE PETITION THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO:
Immediately Ban the Deadly Videogame Known as “SkyRim” for The Safety of America’s Youths.
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.

This can’t just be someone being plain stupid… someone’s got to be trolling.
This is something I am going to point out.
“Whereas videogaming has proven to cause social, ethical and health problems in people of all ages,”
What study is this?
“Whereas sexual perversion and homosexuality are threatening to destroy the Christian foundations on which this nation was built”
The United States wasn’t founded on Christianity.
” 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,”
I’m not sure how exactly you would measure the ”psychological and spiritual” damage of a game.
“1) To enact an immediate ban on the videogame known as “SkyRim” produced by Blizzard Entertainment.”
Which violates the first amendment.
” 3) To prosecute the players of “SkyRim” to the fullest extent of the law.”
Which would be doing absolutely nothing, seeing as there is no law punishing the playing of video games.
” 4) To create a national database of videogame avatars and “screen names” so that teenagers can be better monitored.”
Teenagers aren’t the only people playing video games.
You’re so much more eloquent than I am, you make brilliant points, all I do is rant and yet, we hold the same opinion 😀
Bloody hell, never heard of such crap (and I’ve heard a lot), I would love to laugh about this, but I had it sent to me via Facebook by someone who was actually buying into this crap. Is there any way to create a counter petition to ban people like this from their public forums? Okay so maybe I am psychologically and spiritually damaged, but if you want to see a real raving bisexual psycho, take away my games, lol. I lost a good portion of my life to Morrowind and Oblivion and plan on giving a part of myself to Skyrim as well, it’s not unhealthy, I just have a good relationship with my Elder Scrolls games. I just looooove how the Hypochristian society tries to take away everyones’ free will (just as a note, this does not refer to all Christians, just the ones that fit this statement).
