Grand Theft... Porno?

"The Los Angeles city attorney on Thursday sued the makers of 'Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas,' saying that the companies illegally hid porn in their popular video game.

"City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo, who is running for California's Attorney General post in this year's primary, said that the game's developer, Rockstar Games, and its parent company, Take-Two Entertainment, didn't disclose the pornographic content in the game when it went before the video game industry rating board. The board initially awarded Grand Theft Auto a 'Mature 17+' (M) rating; if it had known of the hidden content, it would have, Delgadillo alleged, given it the much more restrictive 'Adults Only 18+' (AO) rating..."

This is really where I start to draw the line. So shoot me if I sound like a hippie, but if I get this right, in the "Grand Theft Auto" series auto theft is ok, carrying firearms is ok, assault and murder are ok, but throw in a little boob and all the sudden it's worth of being sued? Come on now people, really, if there's anything the United States needs it's a little more boob and a little less guns.

Maybe that's just the acid speaking...
