Not unexpectedly, Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Babineaux Blanco (D) has signed into law SB340, a bill making it unlawful to distribute sexually-explicit video games to minors.
The bill was proposed by Sen. James David Cain (R), and was passed unanimously by both the Senate and House in Louisiana.
Because the provisions of SB340 essentially duplicate existing obscenity statutes, the video game industry has actively supported the bill.
For more on SB340 see GP's previous coverage of the bill.
