If this law passes in the states.

Contact your congressman.

OTOH if some retard decides to install a machinegun to his ultra-light, they'll come screaming after HTC. Nothing is safe after this kind of legislation.

Oh I don't think its the left. I think its the lawyers. That wonderful litiginous culture that means the Lawyers get fat while the law gets poor.

Funny, it doesn't say who sponsored the bill. If it had been 2 republicans, I think we would have seen it.

This is Washington State legislation.

What the game developers/distributors should do if this law is passed is pull all of their products from the shelves in the state of Washington. Then let the Wal-Mart lobbyists work to get the law repealed.

The bill is being sponsored by 2 democrats and 1 republican.

Eagler, the bill is supported by a police officers' association- hardly a leftist orginazition.

This was a Sheriff's and Police Officers Association, Lazs. I worked with police and firefighters associations for over 15 years, and in my experience the membership (police officers) tend to be more conservative than the mainstream population.

Anyway read the article and you'll see it's bipartisan...which doesn't matter much if it's Democratic, Republican or Bipartisan stupidity, it's still a dumb idea.
