I want the government to ban same-sex marriage because it’s immoral. I guess I am wrong.

That's not the same thing at all. In the case of same-sex marriage, there IS NO SUCH THING and never has been. What we're trying to do is prevent the government from CREATING the concept of same-sex marriage and forcing it on society. In the case of the video games, the idea is that the government has no authority to ban a product that private businesses create and sell to private citizens. Now, if the government wanted to take taxpayer money and design obscene or violent video games, I would be all for ending that nonsense, but that's not what we're dealing with here.

Yup. As would I.

We are not dealing with violent video games per se. We are dealing with their their sale to minors can be banned. Different argument. There are many things that can’t be sold to minors.
