Eight teen year old BHS student Robbie Frennette says the banning a violent video game creates a certain degree of comfort. Frennette says "thank-you" to Wal-Mart and Zellers for pulling Bully- Scholarship Edition off the shelves. The anti-bullying activist was out-raged when it hit the market because he says even video games can encourage people to harm one another-- but he says now he's breathing a sign of relief and it's a positive step forward. The game includes dunking pupil's heads in toilet and physically assaulting them and taking nude photographs. Frennette also applauds The Canadian Teacher's Federation for spearheading a call for a ban on sales they say there's a link between vio lent video games and aggressive behaviour in children.
