Perhaps you remember in 2006, when Governor Kathleen Sebelius took a stand for gaming legislation that eventually failed to get off the ground, saying "video games and music lyrics promote violence ... Moms and dads shouldn't be alone in their fight to raise children the right way." Perhaps unwilling to learn from mom's example, her 23-year-old son John has created a board game called "Don't Drop the Soap" in which players "fight [their] way through 6 different exciting locations in hopes of being granted parole ... Escape prison riots in The Yard, slip glass into a mob boss' lasagna in the Cafeteria and steal painkillers from the nurse's desk in the Infirmary."

But mom doesn't seem to be terribly outraged, with her spokesperson saying both parents "are very proud of their son John's creativity and talent." So, we're confused. Has she softened? Or are digital games the only ones that are posing a threat to kids?

This is the same lady who gave the democratic response to the state of the union the other day. They specifically chose Kansas to show the democratic party's face outisde the northeast and west coast.

Its intersting how the criminal in this game is black. I doubt anyone will protest it because the person is a democrat.

It looks like Sal the Butcher is a white fat italian, and wheelz looks either asian or hispanic. Only 1 character is black.
