Government regulation of business is now a desired thing on a conservative website?
Of course, you think that social conservatives think that by calling it a business that you have free unfettered access to our children?
We are conservatives, not leftists.

No, it's not. Neither is misrepresting other people's areguments, ass.
Norm Lenhart: “Government regulation of business is now a desired thing on a conservative website?”
It’s government’s job to govern. That might sound like nonsense, but only anarchists would support no regulation of business. In other words, it’s the nature of regulation, not simply regulation, that conservatives are concerned about.
The SCOTUS has consistently agreed that communities have a constitutional right to regulate the marketing of obscene materials. They also have a constitutional right to protect minors from harm. Justice Scalia himself wrote the latter in his opinion.
So we have a situation here where a majority of representatives in a state believed violent video games were harmful, and they wanted to protect their minors (not adults) from harm. The law was written poorly with a vague standard, but that’s not why it was overturned. It was overturned because Justice Scalia and most of the rest of the worst liberals on the court decide to substitute their opinion for the opinions of the representatives in that state.
Frankly, I’m amazed by Justice Scalia, because he’s often bragged how he’d let a bad law stand so long as it was a constitutional. Well, I guess not so much.
