DUNGONS AND DRAGONS BANDED IN PROSION


I know this has nothing to do with media, but it is to funny. A man sentenced to life in jail, for homocide, sued his jail for taking away his Dungons and Dragons game. They refused to let him play the game. The inmate argued that not letting him play the game violated his rights of free speech. A FEDERAL court officialy banned it from prisons. The prisons lawyer said that the game "prmoted fantasy role playing, competative hostility, violence, addictive escape behavior, possible gambling, and gang related activity." Is the not one of the funny things ever taken to court.
