Now this is how you fight against video games!
There are no pansy-like court hearings or cry baby legislative tactics, no, this is a no-holds-barred “I’m gonna take yo sh*t” style of banning. According to Juarez, Mexico, newspaper El Diario, the governor of Chihuahua (not the adorable dog) — where Juarez is located — has declared that all copies of Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 will be snatched up and not available for retail because of the town’s negative presence in the game. Here is what the mayor had to say:
Violent video games instill values which are upside down, and these actions are despicable because they attempt to divide the good will of the residents of American and Mexican cities.
Damn you kids and your rock n’ roll!
