$300 Million Lawsuit Against GTA
Another year, another GTA lawsuit. The attorney of the victim's relatives is suing Walmart, Gamestop, Take-Two, and Sony for $300 million because the murderers learned how to kill from Grand Theft Auto. Of course the lawsuits were filed in Alabama, the crowning jewel of American "get rich" jury justice.At a December hearing, authorities said Devin Thompson, when he was apprehended, told officers, "Life is a video game. You've got to die sometime."
Videogames are just another form of entertainment. You don't see people suing the makers of Godfather and Pulp Fiction movies do you?
