In the mid-80s I worked for a candidate who almost lost his primary to a fundamentalist whose entire platform was based on getting D&D out of the schools. We won the primary, but we wasted a lot of time difusing that that could've helped us in the general (we lost).

Back then, where I lived, there were about two choices... one was sitting at home playing D&D around someone's mom's kitchen table or going out cruising up and down the main drag drinking Sonic cherry slushes spiked with vodka and getting into fights.

A lot of stupid parents sent their kids out to do the latter and praised the lord that THEIR kids were preserved from the evil of the former. Go figure.
