The news presenters will always say that violent video games cause such crimes as school shootings etc but they have no poof/evidence that it does.

Video games are just a easy scape goat now a days. People seem to forget there have been a ton of crazy SOBs before video games. Its just some thing to pawn it off on.

There not exactly wrong I am in AP Psychology and you would surprised how much games can affect people. I saw a video about a teen who played GTA all the time and he committed a murder and robbery based off a level in the game.

Will try to find link

At what point does a video game say.

"Hey let's go shoot a bunch of defenseless children"

News are just trying to push the blame onto something, it comes up everytime.

Videos games did this, video games do that.

It's getting stupid.

Most of the Fox "News" anchors themselves have admitted they are opinion guys: people who don't actually give the news, but rather spin it (toward the GOP, but they never admitted THAT). Most news sources are better than Fox, because it's not even really news. I say hate away. Opinion paraded as "fair and balanced" is a joke. If they called it "Fear Mongering Opinions", I would at least respect them and agree to disagree.

Within the SAME day they are trying to put the blame for this horrible event on some targeted object of the day mentioned in the company memo while parading it as facts: pathetic. It'd take a legion of actual intellectuals to determine if video games could have POSSIBLY triggered any part of the incident.

That has nothing to do with a video game, the guy is just sick in the head. I played Gta 3 when I was 6 and have been playing GTA ever since and I would never go shoot up a school or kill anyone. I hate when people blame games whenever something happens.
