Gamers know him as the man who put forth the much-publicized violent game law that the United States Supreme Court struck down in 2011. ‘Gamers have got to just quiet down,’ Yee said at the time. ‘Gamers have no credibility in this argument. This is all about their lust for violence and the industry’s lust for money. This is a billion-dollar industry. This is about their self-interest.'”
