Darth Homer Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 In his rhetoric Lieberman has struck a tone of stern condemnation of much of America’s popular culture, from rap music to violent video games. Huh? Against violent games? I'm not voting for you. Simple as that.
Crazy_dog no.3 Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 I don't live in US, and i shouldn't really care, but really if... In his rhetoric Lieberman has struck a tone of stern condemnation of much of America’s popular culture, from rap music to violent video games. ... happens u guys are going to suffer the APOCYLAPSE . U just need someone to make a video recording of some guy crashing his car over a bridge. ;)
Sherack Nhar Posted January 13, 2003 Author Posted January 13, 2003 Lieberman is notorious for trying to pass a bill that would ban violent videogames from stores. I'm trying to find the gamespot article about that...
darthfergie Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 ugg...I wouldn't mind supporting Gore...but LIEBERMAN? That's practically handing the Republicans another term! Oh well...can't have everything... BTW, Sher...he's been pushing it for a long time, but in a statement recently he thought the ISDA was doing a decent job enforcing it's regulations, but he does think that mature rated games should be ID sensative. And the crappy part is that he has CNN in his hip pocket. They run so many anti-gaming articles and it annoys the crap out of me because of the horribly educated views they use. They only use games like BMX XXX, Soldier of Fortune, GTA3, and others to represent the entire gaming industry. It annoys me to death.
Crazy_dog no.3 Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 What's the government got against GTA3 and SOF2?! They're only games! I have both and it's not like I have a gun or anything. Fine, I have a pellet gun, but even with that I don't go robbing shops.
Darth Homer Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 see, that's what WE'RE all saying, but they've come up with a completly unfounded relationship of violent games to violent kids...this all REALLY blew up around the whole Columbine thing (if you don't know what that is, go here) when it was revealed that the 2 kids had made a model of their school in a Doom map
Tie Guy Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 Originally posted by darthfergie I wouldn't mind supporting Gore...but LIEBERMAN? You blasphemer! Anyways, of all the candidates, I'd say that Lieberman has the least chance of winning. Kerry or Edwards or Grahm have a much better chance of defeating Bush than Lieberman. Of course, i don't think anyone is gonna defeat Bush, but absolutely not Lieberman.
Paragon_Leon Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 well, if it's not Liebermann, then your notoriority skydives. (is that even proper spelling ?) i wouldn't vote for him if i were in the US; simply because of a certain aspect of his foreign policy.
Clefo Posted January 13, 2003 Posted January 13, 2003 I'll be able to vote in 2004, so I need to pay attention to this. I'll probably regester as a Democrat just so I can vote in the primaries, but of the people who have announced so far I would probably vote for Kerry, whenever I think of Edwards I think of that "Crossing Over' guy, And I'm not too familiar with Graham..
xwing guy Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 Vote Bush in 2004! *decides to never visit this thread again due to what the replys will be from all the Bush haters*
Zygomaticus Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 Wake up, Sherack! WAKE UP!! I won't be able to vote in 2004, so I guess it's up to me to sit and watch...heh, i could convince my mom to vote against him
Clefo Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 Considering I would be 18 by then.. any of that gaming crap wouldn't apply to me.. I'd still vote for Liberman over Bush
Artoo Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 Great! Just great! I find out that the people this issue affects can't vote on it! How fair is that? GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR... GO BUSH 2004!!! He may not be the best man for the job, but at least he hires the right people!
Zygomaticus Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 But come to think of it...I don't play violent games. :| I play Medal of Honor (Teen rating if i'm not mistaken) and Warcraft III (also Teen)
Rogue15 Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 i'll not vote for the idiot, OK? now give me all your points or i WILL vote for him!

Eets Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 Well, I'd comment on this, but as soon as I clicked the link and saw the following picture, I was forced to repeatedly stab my eyes out with a sharpened spoon.
Rogue Nine Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 Blah Lieberman. Blah politics. Blah United States. Better Bush than any Democrat out there.
Surfnshannon Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 Me too - I saw the pic and left the article! Couldn't stand the sight of the old people kissing. Ack! NE ways - here we are, America, in the midst of war (Korea problems, Iraq problems) and our "axis of evil" name calling and this guy is concerned with VIDEO GAMES?? A giant WTF goes out to him and his campaign. I'm not voting for him. I hope someone better comes along!
Treacherous Mercenary Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 Originally posted by Rogue Nine Blah Lieberman. Blah politics. Blah United States. I would have to agree..
WolfmanNCSU Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 I am not who I would vote for yet. I don't think I would vote on Lieberman. I dont like all his ideas. If I was voting democratic, then I think I would vote for Edwards (I already voted for him once for NC Senator). I don't Bush's economic plan right now, however I do like his attitude towards nuclear power. (Note. this is not his attitude towards nuclear weapons, which is a completly different arguement.)
Hannibal Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 Originally posted by Tie Guy Anyways, of all the candidates, I'd say that Lieberman has the least chance of winning. Kerry or Edwards or Grahm have a much better chance of defeating Bush than Lieberman. Of course, i don't think anyone is gonna defeat Bush, but absolutely not Lieberman. Sorry Tie Guy but in a CNN poll of voting democrats Lieberman is currently in the lead. But I agree with you that those other 3 have a better change of defeating Bush. Lieberman doesn't seem presidential to me. Neither does Kerry. Edwards or Graham mabybe. I think Gore was the only one who had a real chance against Bush. All those people who were in an uproar 3 years ago would've been registering Gore voters like there is no tomorrow.
Crazy_dog no.3 Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 Originally posted by Sherack Nhar Those games depict violence, therefore they are violent game.

Paragon_Leon Posted January 14, 2003 Posted January 14, 2003 thanks for the pic, Eets.. now let me provide the much needed comic relief: remember when a oh-so-familiar other big-shot Democrat kissed someone in public ? She turned out to be... no ! i can't say it ! you KNOW what i'm going to say !
