"Star Lock" - sounds like a super-studly name for a town marshall. That sounds like how Utah deals with liquor/beer/wine - they tax the hell out of it and sell it under the watchful eye of armed guards. Every time I visit my family I make it a point to go in and buy a case of beer, and ask one of the guards for a bottle opener (just to see the look on their face).
You can cower in your shoes, but he's still gotta make it on the ballot, and I think Kinky Friedman probably has a lead on him already. Kinky's got mystery novels, Jewish Country Music, and an action figure, by cracky!
And anyway, here's how it would affect me: I got GTA:Vice City at Half Price Books last weekend, for $8. Governor Locke would bump that up to a sizzling $12. Whoopty.
Ahhh for the state that i didn't need any more reasons to hate come yet another reason to hate it. God bless Texas because with people that dumb they really do need to be blessed. Otherwise they would have already killed them selves with a can opener.

As the videogame industry continues to grow so does it's reach in government, they need to start hiring lobbyist to keep congress and law makers at bay much like the banking, oil, and any other major industries!

Hey, isn't Bush from Texas? Star Locke could be our next God appointed president. So would military games be considered violent? Oooooh..big debate.

No because they are a recuitment tool... and God said it was ok.
That article has been updated with a correction stating that Mr. Locke actually wants a 100% tax, not 50%. I guess in Texas, the motto, "Go big or go home" really applies.
