I see it as a vicarious outlet for violence that satisfies the innate human lust for blood and violence.Face it, we are mostly savages who are only contained through our various escape outlets;this site being one of them as witnessed by all the tough guy talk on here. Fact is most of these internet tough guys couldn't punch their way out of a paper bag. |

If MORE people played shooter games, and fighting games, I bet there would be even more of a drop in crime. Games are getting so realistic that they could satisfy most people's desire to fight, kill, and steal. |

The triple crown of gun control Not even just gun control, but all crime in general. Violent and non-violent. Obama wants to keep researching until he gets the results he wants. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 20576232 That's how O rolls. Impeach this bastard already.. For fucks sake. He's just going to grease the "researchers" anyway so he'll get what ever results he wants. |

Spine monkey User ID: 31824263 United States 01/18/2013 11:33 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to videogames.procon.org] Quoting: Bilbo Baggins As I posted on the 11:55 conference thread, Violent video games and video games in general Reduce Acts of crime, and violent crime in particular. Look towards the bottom of this page to see the statistics of video games to crime. Fuck you Obama. "Research needs to be done to see the psychological effects on the mind." It's already been done ass hat. And proves the opposite of popular belief. Interesting. However, assuming that Obama KNOWS that this study has already been done is a bit of a stretch. I mean, there a hundred things a day on the President's plate, should he care to address them. So, yes, bravo on the article and stats, but not on the needless president bashing. |

Problem is, the president's willing to bash something without knowing the facts. Not just bash it, but for all we know, take ACTION against it without knowing about the truth. That's not acceptable under any circumstances. If we let him do that with video games, that's setting a precedent he can follow to step other constitutional freedoms. |

This research cannot be used by this admin because they did not pay for it and it needs to be a firm that is sympathetic to the progressive adgenda. Watch for their paid for by the taxpayers shill research to surface soon ! |

Bilbo Baggins (OP) User ID: 10113273 United States 01/18/2013 12:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thanks for the replies and bumps guys. I'd really like to see this information go viral. I'm so tired of being attacked by people for being a gamer. "They make people violent, and want to do illegal acts!!" They really don't, people are naturally violent and angry creatures. Games give people an outlet for their anger, for those sadistical actions that we as humans have. Personally I feel refreshed after playing video games. More relaxed than I was when I started playing. From personal experience I can verify what this study says is true. |
