Story: Do video games make children violent?
Posted by: James Waller (Thursday 1 June 2006, 6:37 PM)
No, Video games don't make children violent. If they did id probably be in jail right now. My name is James Waller i live in California, I play a whole mess of violent video games ranging from Grand Theft Auto to Counter-Strike. Never have i gotten the urge to go out and steal a car or shoot some guy in the head because of a video game. Sure i have thought about life if it was a video game like one of the ones i just listed but everytime i think about it, it comes back to me dieing at the end and that just loses the thought of it and i realize its just a game. I also have alot of friends that play the same video games as i do and none of them have gone on a shoot rampage or a car theft spree.
People think that video games produce violence because little kids pretend to be like their favorite super villian at the age of 10 or so. You never see a young kid go out and try kill someone because Shreder from Ninja Turtles trys to kill them. If you ever have please email me at compgamer998@yahoo.com with a movie of it (HAS TO BE REAL IM A PRO WITH MOVIE MAKER AND PHOTOSHOP I WILL KNOW IF YOU ARE FAKING IT) or a story about it.
