    Well, well, well. A guy with actual expertise in psychology wrote his local newspaper sharing why Jack Thompson's crusade is illogical.

    Here in Louisiana, a federal court is examining one such law that could penalize cashiers $2,000 and lock them up for a year in prison, doing hard labor. Beware! You can be sent to Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola for selling a computer game to a teenager if that game appeals to a kid's "morbid interest in violence".

    I guess then most of us at HWF would be candidates for violence. Never mind the facts that prove no conclusive link between violent video games and violent people.
