Bush banning anime from the USA!, a rumor and letter from the undersigned Options

[techniasymphony]

I was at my friend's xanga just earlier and found this post about Bush banning Anime forever from the United States of America. Some moron who disguised his/her name as "The Undersigned" as written a letter to the President demanding him to BAN ANIME FROM THE STATES. Here's the letter:

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

You all love Anime, right? And want to watch it forever in your local USA stations? If so, please save it!!! SIGN THE PETITION....

Sign the Petition

Like Bush is going to listen to one little moron who doesn't like anime?

Exactly.

This is ridiculous. George Bush can't reply to every idiot out there that has an opinion. If people are so concerned why not ban and arrest those who watch porno?

Okay, here I go on my rant:

There obviously would be a rebellion considering tons of people in Japan are making money from showing their cartoons in the US. And the people in the US enjoy anime as well. Just because there's a few people (which is definitely a minority) that dislike anime, doesn't mean that Bush is going to say "Oh, these people don't like anime? Well let's make it illegal to watch Japanese cartoons!"

It's a bit of prejudice if I can say so myself that they're assuming all Japanese cartoons are like this. Because they're not and it's a stereotype that they are. The writer only points out 2 shows that may not be the best shows in the world, but they do have good aspects as well. If people don't like anime, they shouldn't watch it. There is no real reason why it should be banned. It's not even legal for him to completely shut it out. Sure he's the president, but he needs to have some legal reinforcement to doing something so drastic.

Ugh... This is almost as annoying as that Bonzai Kitten crap.
