Games Target Teens With Shooting Missions
CINCINNATI -- Teens play video games in homes throughout the Tri-state, but one game is different. The player in Ethnic Cleansing isn't killing just anyone -- he's killing all non-whites.

The game is produced by a white supremacist group called National Alliance.

"The whole intent of making this video game was to make a racially provocative video game and if it does help promote the separation of the races, then it's been positive and that's what we want," said Shawn Walker, chairman of National Alliance.

Walker said the game doesn't give the player the choice of whom to kill, but it does provide a choice of killers.

"We do give you the option of being a Ku Klux Klan member or a skinhead or something like that. That's more of a reality today. There are people who enjoy that sort of thing -- a shoot 'em up video, just like all the other shoot 'em up videos," Walker said.

A Tri-state teen who played the game noticed that every time a black man was shot, he made a strange sound.

"(Like) a monkey screaming. I guess it's their attempt at a racist joke," the teen said.

Ethnic Cleansing isn't the only hate game available. There are new games, such as Shoot The Blacks and Border Patrol. The mission of Border Patrol is to shoot Mexicans before they cross the border into America.

"These are very hardcore things we are talking about," said Mark Pitcavage, of the Anti-Defamation League.

Pitcavage is the chief investigator of hate groups for the Anti-Defamation League. He has also spent time investigating hate groups for the justice department.

"You can get information on the National Alliance ... what it is, what they believe, how to get more information, what their Web site is. So, it's a propaganda vehicle; at the same time it's a game," Pitcavage said.

But does the message get through?

The U.S. Army uses a video game as a gateway into their recruiting Web site. It has been reported that up to 30 percent of the 30,000 people who play the game daily go on to read more about joining.

Pitcavage added that the Tri-state is fertile ground for hate groups.

"Kentucky is home to one of the larges and most active Klan groups in America. Ohio is home to the up and coming Klan group, The Mystic Knights of the Ku Klux Klan," he said. "They are always searching for ways to recruit people and try to influence people and try to get their message across."

Hate groups are now using simpler technology that almost anyone can design to push their games, Jones reported.

The problem is that the older games required the user download the game to the computer's hard drive. Newer games like Kaboom, where a player acts as a suicide bomber and tries to blow up as many Jews as possible, aren't on the hard drive at all.

"It appears on a Web site and it runs and once you finish playing it, it goes away until the next time you visit that Web site," Pitcavage said.

"This is a form of pornography," said Dr. Stuart Bassman, a psychologist. "This is a form of abuse. A form of violation of decency, of respect, of honor."

Bassman, a Cincinnati psychologist, said parents need to be on the lookout for racist games.

There is also software available that can block some of the Web sites. Bassman said the software is a must because the damage the games cause could last a lifetime.

"They are dehumanizing these people. They are making them into images that can be manipulated, abused, exploited and killed. And the net effect to a child can be quite devastating," Bassman said.
