It isn’t a red herring, you said things weren’t affecting us, they did, and they are, every decade gets us farther away from who we were.
You don’t see any x-rated billboards, because your standard of x-rated is different than what it was.

1960s even 1980s Americans would have forbidden many of our billboards today as porn, that goes for commercials, magazine ads and so on.

Reality is not a stagnant thing. What you and I grew up in is gone forever.

The law, such as it is forbids x rated billboards and so by the law we live under, for better or worse, there are none. Porn to the Muslim is an exposed ankle. Porn to most people involves nudity and or sex.

Do I think there are plenty of disgusting crap out there? Yes. Do I like it? No. But back on point, Show me the definitive proof that video games cause anything but a good time or frustration in the player. Because you do not personally like something or I do not personally like agree etc with something does not merit government intervention.

Not a road I care to travel.

Govt bans Christian churches as they offend muslims
Govt bans Heterosexual marriage because it offends homosexuals...

Se where this crap leads?
