There's a lot more going on than just playing a violent video game. How about folks make sure their kids know the difference between reality and fiction, get them help for anger issues if they have them, teach them not to fiddle with guns and... STOP BUYING THEM M RATED GAMES!

You know, there are two things to be said about this.

1.don't give the M rated game to the 8 year old. "The video game, which sports a mature audiences rating, meaning that it should only be played by gamers who are 17 years of age or older." This is what the news artical says. It's not a kid's game.

2. "The child reportedly told investigators that he found the gun, which belonged to Smothers, and it accidentally discharged while he was playing with it." THIS HaS NOTHING TO DO WITH GTA. Kids play with things they find and it is the adults job to keep them away from kids. The kid did not play GTA and think, "You know, I'm going to kill Gradma with her gun."

Someone tell me that this came from FOX News, becuse I really want to believe that there is some smarts and comen sence in people.
