Where Politics And Video Games Collide

Huh, I wonder why they're not advocating less biased and more accurate news in newspapers (and more on the internet) and television so young people will even remotely care about those oldsters' concerns?

Oh, yeah, we've all had this conversation. The desire is to legislate all childhood activities because the old folks don't trust or understand new-fangled shinies. Maybe if they started emulating the churches using Halo to draw the crowds, they would inadvertently witness how far-off their claims are.

I still don't see how there is clear evidence of a link between violent videogames and gang activity. Oh, wait, I know--the presence of video games is all that's needed to incriminate them in any violent crime committed by violent criminals in violent gang willing to ice all the cops before they ever played GTA.

Of course it's obvious to all of "them" that the mere existence of these infernal gaming machines is a threat to society and the youth. Just like, despite the impossibility, GTA is so obviously the tool to teach real-life violence and skills (such as shooting and screeching driving).
