Violent Videos & Morons on Supreme Court Target Children

Justice Antonin Scalia writing for the majority,7-2, in striking down California's ban on sale of ultra violent videos to minors cited Cinderella, Snow White, Grimm's Fairy tales etc as violent legal and cultural precedent. How sick is this guy? So if someone played a word association game with Scalia and mentioned the childrens fairy tale "Snow White" he would respond that she tried to poison the wicked witch. Walt Disney didn't get an academy award for this picture based on its violent sequence. Of course maybe Scalia et al only look for those parts of a picture to get off on.

Simply Snow White and Cinderella were about morality and engaging charactors. By contrast ultra violent videos are ALL about grotesque killing, brutal rape, arson,robbery, no pleasant dialogue and certainly nothing about the benefits of living a moral life in opposition to immoral influences. One wonders about the Scalia household and the other six justices households. They walk into a room where a minor is watching an ultra violent video. The video is in the middle of a rape segment followed by torture of the rape victim. Would Scalia stop to watch? Would he comment on the quality of the blow job? Would he do a high five with the kid or kids about the exciting crime escapade?

True ironic justice for the Justices would be to live long enough to be assaulted by one of the crazies that are being taught now as a minor the wrong stuff by ultra violent videos. Interestingly the two Jew women and one Hispanic concurred with Scalia. Since women in violent video games always are abused one would think that the feminist harpies on the bench would stick up for their gender. But Sotomajor says "no problemo" and the two yentas say "l'chiam". So much for remembering where you came from.
