Someone is trying to ban anime, In The U.S| GAARA |  Posted: Jan 25 2005, 01:21 PM |
UFC Light Heavyweight Champ, Quinton "Rampage" Jackson!!!  Group: Advanced Members Posts: 5,057 Member No.: 2,633 Joined: Aug 12th 2004 Location: santa ana(in the OC) | I was on a Initial D group in myspace when I found this, the top portion is on a petition to ban anime and the lower part is a response to the petition: i found this on http://www.petitiononline.com/cutiepie/petition.html with the title of "LET'S SAVE AMERICA-BAN ANAMIE NOW" this petition seem legit and it seem someone/group is trying to do this. i personally think its stupid, but whatever, i'll sign to try and STOP this stupid petition... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lets Save America - Ban Anime Now To: George Bush Here in America, we live in a climate of moral decay. What is the cause of this? It is called "anime". Anime is a perverse, evil, insiduous form of animation from the dark land of Japan, and is corrupting America's youth at unprecedented rates. Here are a few examples of anime which are circulating on the Internet and may very well be in your home: 1) Ah My Goddess: A sick and disgusting show which causes children under the age of 18 to think they are capable of love. The main female character is clearly under 18, and is forced into a romantic relationship by an older man who "wishes" for her to be his girlfriend forever. He even KISSES her, and she appears NAKED. That poor girl must be so confused. 2) Love Hina: I'm not even going to mention the unspeakable, disgusting, pedophilic, pornograhpic events which transpire during this show, but suffice it to say, groups of young men on Love Hina-fueled rampages are raping children at a level unheard of since the 60s. If you are a parent or a decent human being, I urge you to sign this petition to ban all forms of anime in the United States. Anyone who is found in possesion of anime should be arrested and jailed for an exhorbant period of time. Anime is a dark scourge upon our beautiful nation, and we don't need this Japanese filth corrupting the hearts of the children. As a resonsible Christian, I demand to see this garbage removed from our nation. Please sign this petition and send it to George Bush, your Congressman, and the makers/distributors of anime filth and depravity. Do the right thing. Sincerely, The Undersigned -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- if the above disgusts you here's where you can be opossed to the ban... http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/pet...gn.cgi?ProAnime To Stop the Ban on Anime To: George Bush Some people are signing against anime and are calling is to be a "perverse, evil, insiduous form of animation from the dark land of Japan, and is corrupting America's youth at unprecedented rates." Anime is NOT corrupting the youth of America, and since when has America become a country of Christians? Isn't there a SEPARATION of Church and State? Isn't this a ban on our Freedom of Speech? And Freedom of Press? What does anime have to do with brainwashing our youth? Sincerely, The Undersigned |

One group is trying to get Masturbation made into a Federal Offence so if little Jonny is caught wacking off or fails their so called masturbation urin test he'll go strait to federal prison because he isn't abstaining from sexual acts. These people are so misguided by their twisted perception of their faith its disgusting. |

Have any of you actually looked at the stupid shit people sign in them? A good 3/4ths of it is hijacked bullshit with no relavance to the petition itself, or it's plain ol' spam... 3 years ago, there was an online petition to GM to bring back/don't kill the F-Bodies...2005 is here, and where are our F-Bodies?  No one's gonna waste their time looking at that shit...Not the Executives at GM, not George Bush, not even another internet user like me...Besides, there's no interest within the government to even touch anime...Anime isn't important at all to the Feds at D.C., so should they see this petition, they'll look at it, ask "WTF is this 'anime'?" and toss it away...They're not gonna let people waste their time when they've got other things to do, like counteract terrorism or deal with Social Security... In short: This is bullshit...In 3 years from now, go to your local entertainment store, browse through the anime/manga section, and see if you still remember this petition... |

頭文字D之靈 Group: Advanced Members Posts: 388 Member No.: 3,664 Joined: Oct 14th 2004 Location: Toronto, Ontario, Canada | I agree with RakeRon that some people are seriously misguided by their faith, but that's just SOME. I'm a Christian and well even though I don't agree with certain things in this world, I don't go out telling everyone that they can't do it. If something doesn't please me then I don't do it or watch it. Besides, not all anime have "evil" things in them, and as for the ones that do, just don't watch them. It's true that this guy is trying to be faithful by not watching these anime himself, but he's doing something else that goes against his faith which is, he's being selfish by trying to make it so that no one can watch any anime (not just the so called "evil" ones) just because he doesn't like it, and he's also bashing Japan by calling it a "dark land". Anyway, I just wanted to say that because I don't want people to get the wrong idea about Christians just because of a few misguided people who call themselves Christians. |

Hey, let's make some petitions of our own. Just to get a laugh or two. Anyways, I sort of agree of the petition. Except that it needs some rewording. The title should be "Ban Tokyopop from Acquiring Anime Licenses". This post has been edited by Inmate77 on Jan 25 2005, 10:42 PM | ||

Chor Lau Heung Group: Advanced Members Posts: 2,082 Member No.: 1,711 Joined: Apr 26th 2004 Location: Update Profile | blah some christians just talk to much and use their belief as an excuse to ban things. few years back there was some knocking on my door and tried to convert us. but there is a point in that argument... there are some anime, where characters at a really low age talks bout love and actually show real emotions. e.g. Naruto  |

If this online petition was truely repuitable above the "bullshit" level regarding religion, titles like "Neo Genesis Evangelion", "Hellsing", and "Serial Experiments Lain" would be their main targets...Think about it for a second...  Instead, I think some mother was just mad because her 12-year-old son saw a drawing of boobies in a manga book...  This post has been edited by MidnightViper88 on Jan 26 2005, 01:59 PM |
