A valid point of view, but consider -- the game is a card trading game, so anyone could make it in their own home. It exists, and this petition won't change that. Maybe the protest raised just raises awareness, makes people think, and has a positive effect on people who might want to play it once just to see what it all means.
I'm thinking this is a similar situation to
Ghettopoly -- first there's game creation, then publicity, outrage, then in sequence protests, petitions, the manufacturer stops making the game, and some fly-by-night outfit takes over. Then the game is forgotten, 'cause its a stupid premise anyway.
Opinion: If games don't hurt our mind and culture, then protests and outrage don't rob us of our freedom. It's all just stuff that happens during the day.
