Hundreds of Thousands of Underage Gamers Petition Gaming Sites Across the Web

In a stunning show of support just about half a million gamers under the age of 18 have signed a petition to be shown video clips and trailers of games that require age verifacation before viewing. Citing the oft used first amendment of the constitution the constituency claims that free speech applies to video games and therefore they should be allowed to view the content which has been deemed as mature at such popular sites such as IGN.Com and Gametrailers.Com.

 

When asked to verify their age before viewing the material the vocal group are foiled everytime they enter their age truthfully. We had the oppurtunity to speak with the petition's creator Calvin Johnson via Xbox Live, in which he had this to say;

 

"We feel that this form of discrimination is highly-(long pause) [Shouted Expletive] There's a [expletive] sniper in the [expletive][Racial Epithet][Homosexual slur] roof. Get that [expletive]! Use the Javelin cheat. (Another long pause) [Indecipherable screaming] I cant concentrate, there's some [expletive][Homosexual slur] trying to interview me."

 

At this point the host had left the game rendering the interview incomplete.

 

Sticks and stones Calvin. Sticks and stones.
