Computer game store refuses to sell to stupid kids
A Gamestop shop in south Dallas has instated a new policy: bad grades = no games
Youngsters looking to buy a game at the store have to be accompanied by an adult who will vow to their grade level.
"[A student] needs to be reading a book. He knows how to play Madden before he knows how to do his ABCs and 123s - that's backwards!" store manager Brandon Scott justified his policy.
Scott apparently likes discipline. He's married to a teacher himself. He'll also refuse customers who swear (especially the n*****-word is a big no-no) or have they jeans hanging at knee-height.
Because you need to demonstrate wholesome values to be able to purchase a game where stand up through their elbows in body parts while killing even more folks.

Comments
Kids need guidelines from authorities about what is and isn't acceptable. It's not OK to watch cartoons, play video games, or fritter all time away while pulling Ds.
Some will argue that it's the parents' job to raise the kids. That's true, but the whole reason we have truancy laws - and why we occassionally hear stories of parents going to jail for allowing their kids to habitually skip school - is because some of them aren't doing even the minimum.
Video games can be a fun reward for kids doing well. It's like dessert. But you never trade the main course for it. Good grades are not too much to ask for access to the games.
