2. One difference
KKK lynchings and gay killings are illegal activites. Having sex (what caused this controversy, since the violence was ok) is not.

You say "I somewhat draw the line between games and movies. I don't want any censorship against any movies", why is one form of censorship okay and one is not? If a game is rated M (which is the equivalent to an R rated movie) it's not the government's job to step in when someone allows their kid to play it.

By your logic, we should ban all movies rated higher than PG because a kid could sneak into the theater and get scarred for life from seeing boobies.
