2 more "family values" groups in u.s. have launched email campaign against bioware, calling on studio keep same-sex relationships out of star wars: old republic.

here's remember star wars: darth vader crushes guy's throat 1 hand. luke skywalker discovers butchered , burned remains of family, killed fascist military , left rot in sun. ben kenobi gets bar fight , chops dude's arm off. han solo murders guy. , that's first 15 minutes! things go downhill there, when empire blows entire planet make point.

florida family association , american decency association have other things on mind. they're concerned bioware exposing kids same-sex relationships in star wars: old republic, , they're calling upon followers , other like-minded americans join them in email campaign demanding stop.

form letter asking bioware stop "impacting our children" on florida family association website. "american families grew star wars film series family fare. films contained no profanity, no nudity , no sexual situations," says. "it makes no sense bioware , electronic arts shatter family quality in star wars videogames pacify 35 lgbt polling participants , appease extremists."

"star wars videogames children. overwhelming percentage of 1.7 million games sold being used children not need exposed propaganda," continues. "please stick policy avoid such advocacy representations in games."

i'm not sure these "extremists" , misunderstanding reference "polling participants," i'm there more 35 lgbt gamers signed old republic. , gamepolitics notes, sw:tor rated t (teen), means if eight-year-old kid playing it, you're 1 screwing things up, not bioware.
