Okay, my opinions started piling up to the point where i couldnt read any more, so sorry if any of this has been covered.
For the rexcord, the MArines used a version of doom for training. It was used to train the soldiers to work as a team, so basically tactics. I am an incredible shot within the world of video games. However, in real life, i am a terrible shot. Hand eye coordination used in operating a mouse is entirely different from the hand eye coordination used in aiming a gun. there is 0 correlation between the two.
I would like to see a reliable source on the supposed kid making 8 headshots in 8 shots. sounds like a case of "a kid at my school saw this magazine article when he was on vacation, so trust me, its reliable":rolleyes:
there is 0 Accountability on the creators of violent video games for desensitization or killing. this is why there are ratings on games. a 12 year old will not turn into a murderer/rapist from killing hookers in GTA. Killing demons in doom will not desensitize a kid to the deaths of fellow students. Playing games will not make a kid a marksman.
The world has been and will be filled with sick people. It is also filled with lazy assholes that will jump ion any bandwagon necesarry to further their own agendas. Does the average 60+ year old person incongress LIKE video games? Do they like horror movies? Music Videos? Rap or Metal? No. they are trheatened by what is new and different. Plus, too many of them are in the "Religious Majority". In many cases. their views are almost naziesque. Did watching TV make them like this? Did repeated viewings of Leave it to Beaver give them a fear of everything that isnt Christian and White-bread? nope. it was the same thing that makes kids kill, and turns harmless nerds into serial killers:
Upbringing, and whatever psychological issues they developed on their own.
You cant even blame violent porn for creating a rapist. The ju7mp from fantasy to creatying a reality is entirely in the hand sof the individual.
if a generally "good" person stumbles over some child porn on the net and then starts molesting kids, there wiring was bad to begin with. there is a choice made, even if he suddenly realises he has an impulse upon seeing these things. He can report it to the FBI. He can avoid that page and pretend he never saw it. he can act out on what he saw, performing the same crime.
Everyone is responsible for their own actions. When it is determined that they arent, it still isnt the fault of the "influential media". if a person can be swayed by these things, they are not emotionally or mentally fit to exist innormal society ANYWAY, so they should be locked up/institutionalised.
End of story.
now, if i could only convince congess of this...
