Maine’s Christian Civic League is calling for a ban on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. “The public has been dangerously desensitized to violence,” the group writes. “Many find a thrill in participating in violent video games.” They continue to say the game goes too far, “even in our own desensitized age.” Of course, the notorious “No Russian” level is most offensive, according to the group.
“All decent people should denounce the game,” they add. The League is also asking the state of Maine to ban “these” games entirely. They then bring up the topic of school shootings, saying violent video games and shootings go hand-in-hand. “The danger is growing each passing day.”
Coincidentally, the same group accused a bookstore owner of being a witch and casting a spell on the administrator of the League. I think this might cancel out any argument they have. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot…
