About time there was a smart judge out there.......... :shock:


"A federal judge has overturned a Michigan law restricting the sale of violent video games, the most recent in a series of decisions that have gutted similar laws on free-speech grounds.

U.S. District Judge George Caram Steeh ruled on Friday that a state law criminalizing the sale of violent video games that might be "harmful to minors" is unconstitutional because those forms of entertainment are protected by the First Amendment's freedom of expression clause. "
