The high court agreed Monday with a federal court’s decision to throw out California’s ban on the sale or rental of violent video games to minors. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Sacramento said the law violated minors’ rights under the First and Fourteenth amendments.

Tis is the California "too violent video game" thing.

It affected only minors, but apparently the USSC by a 7 to 2 vote decided minors could play whatever video games they wanted (without the merchant being prosecuted and fined).

Now that doesn't mean a parent can't deal with the problem, just that California can't. But, of course, California has lots of things it can't deal with ~ budget, debt, illegal aliens, gangs, ~ a portent? Perhaps!
