I made a petition on whithouse.gov and would like everyone to sign it. It is important we get this thing 100,000 sign by February 17 or nothing happens. SHare it on twitter, facebook, tumble ect.. What ever you can we need this to get are goal or video games might go down a terrible tunnle. Here is the link to sign and share

Petition quote:

So what we want is to not have any new taxes on any type of video games, banned games, types of games outlawed and anything that could effect the video game market. Adding any new laws will take away are first amendment right to buy them. Also workers in the industry.

Well, there's the whole first amendment thing that kinda protects video games. Plus there is so much money in the industry that realistically nobody is going to send video games down the 'terrible tunnle'. What I'm saying is you shouldn't worry about it.

That means nothing my good sir. Look at the gun industry and how much money is in it. New laws went into place by Obama excecutive order without the approvel of Congress or Senate. If you get one state to pass a law to tax video games more or ban certain games that passes more state will fallow suit. You have to stand up and do something about it right now before it gets to out of hand
