Federal GTA Lawsuit

[Jan 01, 2004, 3:35 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Suit seeks to ban sales of popular video game (thanks Mike Martinez): "A lawsuit by Haitian groups that asks for the top-selling video game 'Grand Theft Auto: Vice City' to be removed from store shelves will be decided in federal court. " Also, Give Back Take Two (thanks Hump and Steve Nutley) has complaints from The New York Post about GTA, apparently making the case for how depicting violence in a game is worse than molestation: "This is 10,000 times worse than the worst thing anybody thinks Michael Jackson ever did to a little boy."

It's actually trivial to enforce. There's these things called "parents",
maybe you've heard of them? They're supposed to do things like teach and
supervise their children. Yes, they're mythical beasts, but somebody should
be able to find them.

Well said, Rob.
