Connecticut Groups Cancels Plan to Destroy Violent Games

An anonymous reader writes with an update to an earlier story about a group wanting to destroy your violent video games. "Southington, a town in Connecticut, has canceled its plans to collect and destroy violent games, stating that it has already succeeded in raising attention." Perhaps the real reason: "Backed by the Southington Chamber of Commerce, SouthingtonSOS originally planned to offer citizens $25 gift certificates in exchange for their violent games, films, and CDs, which the group would collect for 'permanent disposal.'"

If you're training to use a gun in self-defense, what exactly do you think you should be shooting at?

I presume the police also 'glorify killing', since they shoot at human-shaped targets too?
