The First Amendment's free speech protection (which originally applied to the expression of political opinions that the federal government didn't like) is further reduced to meaninglessness when it is applied to cases like this.

How could expanding the power of something reduce it "to meaninglessness???"

Video games are not "Free Speech". This is a States rights issue. Every state can and does regulate what kids can do and see. They can't drink, drive and do many other things until they are at majority( usually 18). If the majority of voters agree with whatever law they want, even to the extent of living like the Amish, they should have the right to regulate THEIR CHILDREN. This doesn't count for adults because they are afforded all protections under the Constitution.

This crap of giving kids unlimited rights is a 20'th century invention to polute our kids minds into little socialist robots. In a democratic republic, we should be able to make our laws for the general welfare of the people living there without interference. More and more of our laws are deemed unconstitutional by activist courts thereby nullifying our votes. We are fooling ourselves if we thing the country is free. We are under the boot of tryany since Roe v. Wade. The courts used NO precident in that or school prayer laws to overturn the will of the people.

We can argue whether or not something is free speech for an adult, but I should have complete control over my children, as long as I don't cause harm, if I so choose. Is anyone going to argue my child is harmed by NOT being able to play "Grand Theft Auto"?If the majorty wants the law, what's the problem? I personally am a little tired of courts nullifying my votes.
