comparing games and movies?
as quoted in the article:

"it's illogical that video games be treated more harshly than R-rated movies or music CDs with parental warning labels, both of which can be legally viewed and sold to minors.".....

BIG EXCEPTION.... In games such as "Grand-Theft Auto"... aren't the players (notice keyword 'players') able to choose options and make choices ..... what type of weapon to use?..who to kill?... what law to break?... what damage can be done?.... as well as levels?....

In a movie you are watching scenes take place... yes they can be violent... but you do not get to choose whether you can "pop" the innocent lady walking down the street...

Seems to me that there is a big difference.
