A video game that may have been under your Christmas tree is now under more scrutiny from two Florida lawmakers. Sen. Les Miller and Rep. Doug Wiles are alarmed by the new game "Grand Theft Auto III". The video game puts players in the seat of a stolen car and the more crimes you commit, the more points you get. The politicians want the game treated like pornography -- stored away from minors, and sold only to adults. Many stores have policies against selling violent games to minors, but there's no law on the books requiring such policies.
