In response to [URL=http://www.gamepolitics.com/2010/04/23/rapelay-coverage-hits-home-teen-girl]last week’s story[/URL] by Charleston, South Carolina’s News 2 on a 14-year old girl who started petitions against the game RapeLay, a local gamer called the station and offered a point of view on the dangers of banning any games.

While he empathized with the plight of Elena Lyons, thirty-two year old Dondi Wiggins took issue with the banning of any game, saying that gamers, “…should have the right to decide for ourselves” what to play.

Wiggins, President of a local gaming group called [URL=http://www.lowcountryanimegamers.com/]Lowcountry Anime and Gaming[/URL] (a group that is a chapter of the [URL=http://www.theeca.com]Entertainment Consumer Association [ECA][/URL]), said that he personally would not play Rapelay.

Wiggins added, “I don’t think video games should be banned. I think we as gamers should decide what we want to play as an adult. We have free speech.”
