The above link goes to a little video clip of a show where they quickly debated violent video games. <_<
Honestly I think the problem with some of these people is using their emotions instead of common sense. Violent video games don't make violent people, people who are violent choose to play violent video games...
It is like saying that the more women you have driving the streets, the more car accidents occur.
You can look at it and say "hmmm, so women are worse drivers...", or think logically to realize that there are more men too, just not stated. So more people driving = more accidents, the fact that there were more women driving really says nothing about women's driving.
The Columbine shooters might have played Doom... but what does that have to do with them going and killing a ton of people? Other MILLIONS of people played Doom and came out fine. There are a billion other factors that affected them, and by the time they were playing Doom they were already probably pretty far lost...
The fact that the single out video games though rather than movies, books, TV, even the NEWS, which all can talk about violent things and show it at times, is ridiculous.
A few words before I go
Free Speech, Parental Controls, ESRB, and watch what your kids are doing
Peace out
