Roy Burrell, a state representative from Louisiana known as the man who sponsored the bill that bans violent video games from being sold to minors, voices out his thoughts once more through an article he wrote on Shreveport Times. Burrell continues the battle against violent video game content which he claims to be a "fight to protect our constituents and their children against the predatory tactics of the video game industry".

I thank The Times for saying, "Burrell should be applauded for his passion to safeguard the impressionable and vulnerable." As The Times accurately quoted, "I don't want the public to spend one more penny than they have to. But if I'm going to spend taxpayer money, I'm going to do it fighting for these children. They don't have a chance."

The Times agrees, "The pandering of murder, prostitution and various other criminal activities portrayed in video games is indeed gratuitous and morally unacceptable."

Psychopathic killers are not born, they are made! Maybe our judge and news editor should tune into the national cable stations and consider using their professional tools to assist in areas that will help stop senseless activities and deaths due to extremely violent information being fed to our children.

From his last paragraph, "Unlike The Times editor and our "dumbfounded" federal judge, it is difficult for me to ignore the facts that explicitly sexual and ultra-violent video games are severely and adversely affecting our children's behavior."
