You will probably find the laws are not retrospective.

Depending on your view point, seeing a string of bombs falling in front of a bright background (sun, cloud what have you) would produce a series of flashes.

Elpilepsy is one of those things that can remain dormant is a person for their whole life, until the right set of events triggers an episode. The last thing I would want to interrupt my gaming session would be a over night trip to the children hospital if that trait suddenly decided to express itself in one of my children.

1C is just showing us how much they care for their customers.

cheers!

Well, in that case, make the filter an option. Like when I drink 15 beers I have the option to drink them with alcohol and get Sh*** drunk or alcohol free and take proper care of my body.

Thing is LET US DECIDE and LET US TAKE THE RISKS we think are acceptable.

And I agree this is not a health related issue but a legal liability one. And we have to thank that to our fellows americans and their national sport: GREEDY STUPID LAWSUITS. No offense buddies.
