I KNOW kids that do violent things because of the stuff they see in their video games, they think it's cool and fun. Some kids know better some don't. Some will learn from other kids, peer pressure. It just keeps growing, they get it from somewhere, whether it's movies, tv, games, etc. Maybe their dad is beating their mom and they get it from that. Too much violence is my point. It's contagious, I see it in myself. I'm a happy person but if some pissed off jackass happens to stumble into my life it makes me pissed off too.

Video games aren't the issue. Video games are a scapegoat. You live in the most violent culture on Earth and violent video games are a reflection of that, not a cause. |
