If this isn't a joke, it's the stupidest thing I've read. This has gotta be a joke right? https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions#!/petition/immediately-ban-deadly-videogame-known-skyrim-safety-americas-youths/YmY1bLQ5

Sad fact is that is the radical christian(and stupid-dumb-[censored]-idiot) part of America flapping its opinion because this poor, poor country has too many free speech rights that people abuse. Damn man, people abuse the [censored] out of these things.

Well, if it is true, they're obviously not talking about our Skyrim, as it is spelled Skyrim, not SkyRim and it was made by Bethesda, not Blizzard. They also make a very poor argument, they don't mention once what they want to ban it for, saying only that it is "bad".

It's just a joke. I'd say only to make fun of those very radical Christians (like that lot who picket funerals), and not Christians in general. Sadly many people don't seem to be able to recognise a difference and I've seen a lot of hate directed at all religious people because of it. :(

The people behind it are actually part of a satire website that makes fun of radical christianity. The petition isn't serious in the slightest, and this is probably the 10th thread since they released their blatantly obvious troll review and people are continuing to make threads thinking that it's real.

These threads really need to stop.

Excuse me but I happen to be a member of the radical right, and I would like to speak up and inform you that it was the radical right Christian's that fought for the rights that we take for granted today.

As a member of the RADICAL CHRISTIAN right, I am smart enough to realise that everyone has the right to play whatever games that they choose, because if we go down the slippery slope of banning peoples rights and infringing on peoples rights then at the end of the day what rights do we really have?

So nooo we can never have enough free speech. In fact even though I cant stand what they are saying, but a Nazi's free speech should be protected every bit as much as mine.

Parts two and three are particularly out there, and you have to wonder at someone who thinks that's reasonable. How many copies have they sold so far?

If they come for mine they're going to get a kick right in the balls I tell you what.

Right, SMACK in the balls!

It's a joke, not even a very funny one. I did a mild inside-lol at "SkyRim" though.

Even when people say/write this kind of thing seriously, the joke is on them for being ignorant.

Slurms Mackenzie, Optimus Prime, Batman, Crassius Curio and Imperial Guard #1 have all signed, I think we need to start taking this a lot more seriously, those are some political power hitters.
