According to the Facebook confession he made after getting bailed, it was pretty strong stuff. He thought he was going to be raped right then and there, so he unleashed SJW fury on the brute white male.

Fetuses aren't people but I think pregnant women should be worth 1.5x as much as a normal woman. Is there chaining involved? I just hope they don't go with an Ikaruga style color system. Something more like Bakraid would be good, with fat people and the handicapped taking the place of big ships and turrets.
Minority combo bonuses are a conspicuous absence from the misanthropic wankfest, surely... I suppose that'd be more RSG than Ikaruga.

I've long thought Sonic was a dumb mascot with bad games, but I was always grateful for the franchise's undoubted role in funding so many other, great titles on Sega hardware.

Now, with Blue Arms having brought terror to the industry's heartlands, I am even more grateful. Image

Would this actually be a Free Speech issue? I don't think Steam (or a lot of other vendors) allow games with pornographic content, so "thoroughly tasteless levels of violence/depiction of current events" might be another thing they don't want on their service... but, then again, I think they sell Postal on there so idk.

Private companies, to the best of my knowledge, can ban/refuse pretty much anything they please if it doesn't conflict with existing discrimination laws and/or they feel doing so won't negatively affect their ability to do business.

Perhaps I phrased poorly.

Steam or whoever could refuse to carry it if they want. That's totally within their rights. However I don't think they should. After all, they do sell Postal as you mentioned.

Why can't he just populate his art gallery with images of all his favorite Sanics (also in all the sex and gender variants) like normal fans?!
