Indiana Game Bill Dies
'Lack of Support' Ends Road to Senate
from
Stardock Forums
The Indiana violent gaming bill, which was rumored to mirror the various other state bills, has died while trying to garner support. It is possible that Senator Vi Simpson, who introduced the bill, could try and resurrect it by attaching the bill to another proposal.
When announcing the bill, Simpson told the Associated Press: "We're not setting ages or changing the ratings, we are asking retail agencies to enforce it. Right now, kids can walk into just about any store and get their hands on a video game in which they can shoot police officers, use drugs, steal cars, rape women or even assassinate a president. That's frightening to say the least."
