“A federal appeals court ruled Tuesday that a St. Louis County law limiting children’s access to violent or sexually explicit video games was unconstitutional. A three-judge panel of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis overturned a ruling issued last year that supported the ordinance,” the AP reports here. The court held that the ordinance is a regulation of speech based on content and does not survive strict scrutiny. You can access the Court’s opinion at Interactive Digital v. St. Louis County.
