But you know what you have if you don’t have rules?

“All these rules, rules, rules,” he [rapper Shyne] said with his hand on an open page of the Talmud. “But you know what you have if you don’t have rules? You end up with a bunch of pills in your stomach. When you don’t know when to say when and no one tells you no, you go off the deep.” -- Rapper Finds Order in Orthodox Judaism in Israel (Dina Kraft. NY Times. 11/10/2010).

I wonder what word Shyne would have for the Schwarzenegger v. Entertainment Merchants Association, i.e., the Supreme Court case regarding violent videogames, and this NY Times editorial, Video Games and the First Amendment.

What do you think about Shyne's testimony of rooting himself in the Jewish story?
