[QUOTE="heretrix"] That is unfortunate. And no I don't feel the need to flame you, I'm not really into that, but I disagree with you entirely.I along with lots of my friends have seen some of the worst possible violence on film, and have played some of the most violent videogames, listened to highly questionable lyrics, and was raised in a high crime neighborhood..And you know what? Of all of the people I know that have been arrested, (trust me it's a lot) None were hardcore gamers. Most of them came from homes that couldn't even afford videogame systems.. You know what kids need more than some bobblehead whining about how bad videogames are? A BETTER EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM. Videogames don't have anything to do with that.

You know, we agree on the solution to make it better, but you think their are other reasons on why the kids are the way they are today. My good man, look no further than where do they get their knowledge from music, video games, and movies. Weather you believe it or not, it takes more than a parent to raise a child. It's the parents job to teach the child good and bad, justice and injustice. It's society job to maintain that balance.I disagree with games,movies and music having anything to do with how people act,infact theres been a new study saying how the parent treats the kids there first 2 years of there life is how they will be emotionly as an adult because thats when there brain has the largest growth and learn all there emotions during that time.So really games don't teach a kids to be aggressive,and i can be a example of that because i played games like Doom and all that as a kid and am far from aggressive.In actual fact i think games help out in letting people take out the aggressiveness on a game instead of saying them going out and taking it on real people,because even without games depending on how the kids been brough up there going to be aggressive or not no matter what.
You also gotta remember that this is a problem thats been around ever since humans been around inwhich there was no games,movies and bad music.People need to stop pointing and blaming things for its there fault,if a kid grows up aggressive it was the parents fault to begin with.If we had no games,movies and music this would still be a problem and parents would just point and blame something else.Sometimes i wonder when people will realize its there fault.
