Grand Theft Auto to be banned?

Recently in the papers, some guy from some consumer association from Penang wrote in to say that Malaysia should ban Grand Theft Auto. According to him, GTA encourages violence, people killing people for the fun of it; degrades moral so people who played the game have the urge to have more sex. Apparently, one murder case in Thailand was linked to the game and in the writer's eyes, all should be well if the game is to be banned in this country. Basically is about "BAN THIS FILTH!!!" kind of thing. Its funny when they complain about the game but never played it themselves. Its so annoying when they start preaching about it when they never ever touched the game.

But I am sorry, I played GTA before and I thought it was kinda fun and entertaining. I certainly did not go killing people i do not like. Nor did I not go fuck fornicate around after playing the game. Best part is, I know other people who play the game and its still the same old sane person and definately not mental.

I seriously wonder why video games are taking the heat, of course the TV got hit first but i digress. If video games are to be banned if they contain violence/some sex that would literally mean most of the games out there, heck the only games on the market at that time will be children games... and thats not a rosy future to look forward to.

Other than that, think about it, piracy is already rampant, banning games is not a way to solve that problem either, it is going to drive piracy higher. At that time, whatever that happens, do not blame the consumers for using Bittorrent and RapidShare and some free games website (you get the idea) to download the those banned games. Them (Banners?) are the one to blame.

Since we are talking about banning video games, let's see might as wells ban them cigarettes, they cause health problems, some people who smoke' em have the delusion of coolness, why not ban them too? I am already enjoying playing this banning game. Lets ban the internet, since its addictive and a perfect waste of some peoples time like mine or maybe because it has tonnes of pornography that destroys a person moral, that will save the world from global warming since people have no reason to turn on the PC and oh, it will oh-so-save-people's-moral. Hmm let's see, Might as well ban' em movies since some of the involve violence and sex amongst other vices. I could go on but for your sanity and mine, better not.
