We the undersigned believe that Australia should introduce an R18+ classification for video games.

We also believe that laws should be put into place (not unlike laws for other media) where should a retailer provide R18+ classified material to minors, will be prosecuted to the extent the law provides.

We are also petitioning for the resignation of Attorney General Michael Atkinson should this petition get the numbers but fall on deaf ears as we believe he is the only Attorney General in Australia who lets his personal ideals decide the outcome for those that this affects.

We also believe that the lack of an R18+ classification hurts local business as people can illegally download said banned games or just import them, instead of paying money to local retailers where it belongs.

Any enqueries or views on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

I support this petition. Well the game should be bought by personal choice this is dictating what we can & cannot do, simply put editing won\'t change a thing just scare little immature kids who shouldn\'t be playing it in the 1st place a little bit less other than that it\'s just a way to bend us over & screw each of us who are old enough to make their own decisions

I support this petition. i\'d sign it if it was just for the resignation of Mr Atkinson who is an epic fail and embodies pure ignorance, his ministries reasoning of an r18 rating would allowing rape and extreme violence into games is ludicris, they\'d be classified as X and not published..obviously, or they could always censor it beyond recognition i hear their good at making that happen

I support this petition. It is ridiculous that an R18+ classification does not exist. What year is this? 1942? More like 1984....

I support this petition. The addition of an R18+ system would allow full adults to choose what they wish to play, with no restrictions forced upon them by the views of others.

I support this petition. Not exclusively because Mr Atkinson opposes R18+ classification, but because through this issue he has shown his ignorance and incompetence as a politician and as a member of society.
