The law was stupid anyway since any video game with violence against police officers is going to be rated M anyway. I mean really name one game where you can slaughter police officers and its not rated M. I bet you this law was thought up because of GTA3 and VC, even though those games are rated M and aren't supposed to be sold to minors anyway. Yay for stupid lawmakers who don't know what their talking about! :evil:
