The Scotus case that meant the most to me is the Brown v. Entertainment Merchants Association. The year the case took place during 2010 and some of this year. The case had to do with the governor of California trying to ban the selling of violent video gams to minors. EMA filed a lawsuit because they thought it violated their 1st ammendment right of freedom of specch. The SCOTUS ruled 7-2 in favor of EMA becuase it is protected under the first ammendment. The impact is that now many different things fall under the first ammendment.
This is important to me because I like to play video games and just because they may be violent doesnt mean that some kids cant handle it. Also MW3 is a game that is contraversial even in our own classroom, but I believe that my parents and I have the right to decide what games I do and dont play.

I agree with you, because there is no evidence to support if violent video games have a profound impact on students, there should be no limiting what someone can and cannot buy.
ReplyDeleteIts very true. If your parents say you can play the games is it really a big deal? I don't know why the government had to get involved.
