in my opinion i don't thing video games make children violend and are corrupting societey. im a gamer myself and have played my share violent video games, the thing with these people that become hostile and dangerous from these games is that they are not exacly... lets say very bright in some ways. a year or so back there was a shooting in Norway, the shooter apperently had trained his skills with the game Call of duty modern warfare 2 and always seemed like a normal guy to the neightborehood. this shows that very normal people can be violent, but whenever that is because they played certain games has never been proved. i think you should hold parents responsible for their childrens actions, its not the task of the government to raise those kids! its up to the parents to make sure their 10 year olds dont play mature rated games (because that happens).
also in America guns are allowed and almost every household has a firearm somewhere in it, if people would stop blaming games and other media for once and have a look at whats really happening they would start thinking, maybe its too easy to get guns, maybe the current laws allow you to have too many or too powerfull guns.
so long story short.
no, video games do not lead to violent actions in real life and is not corrupting our society, as a matter of fact gamers are often the more social people with more connections that anyone else. parents should be more aware of what their kids are playing.[DOUBLEPOST=1369774764,1369774741][/DOUBLEPOST]in my opinion i don't thing video games make children violend and are corrupting societey. im a gamer myself and have played my share violent video games, the thing with these people that become hostile and dangerous from these games is that they are not exacly... lets say very bright in some ways. a year or so back there was a shooting in Norway, the shooter apperently had trained his skills with the game Call of duty modern warfare 2 and always seemed like a normal guy to the neightborehood. this shows that very normal people can be violent, but whenever that is because they played certain games has never been proved. i think you should hold parents responsible for their childrens actions, its not the task of the government to raise those kids! its up to the parents to make sure their 10 year olds dont play mature rated games (because that happens).
