Reading that article, I found myself incredulous and disgusted. To pin the blame of school violence solely on videogames is not only stupid but very close-minded. If these people blame videogames for the unfortunate deaths at Columbine, why don't they sue the entire media for showing violence? Why don't they sue society for wanting these sort of games and movies and television shows?

And how is $5 million dollars going to prevent school violence? Why are such harsh and paranoid actions being taken place when school violence has _always_ existed. Why don't these parents and students take blame for their ignorance?

Argh, now I'm in a pissy mood. Is their an e-mail or a foru I can contact these people who are filing the lawsuit because I really feel like venting some sense into them.
