No, its a people who blame violence on video games problem… and those people come from both sides of the aisle.
Unless they come for my Casio Loopy, its all good!

You read scared. Nobody needs grand theft auto.
You should have pong like the Founders had.

I have an XBOX Live, 360, PlayStation, Wii, and Switch in the house.
I think you should be scared of me…turning all psycho and not knowing one end of a gun from the other (well, not as much as you).
I might miss who I was aiming at and hit you by mistake.

I’m shocked! Who needs an arsenal like that?
It does explain somethings though.

We know the Secret of Monkey Island. Settled science. Civilized society. It’s not 1990.

While there is tons and tons of evidence over the years, that TV and now video game violence does play a role in how children and teen agers perceive violence and how these games affect a child’s perception of their actions against others…The I got shot and killed in the game, so I will just press reset thought process does blurr the reality that getting shot in real life is REAL and Deadly, and Permanent.
This is the dumbest thing I have ever seen. LOL Only in Chicago.
If there is one thing playing FPS games taught me it is that if I pick up that virtual rifle and engage the enemy, I am going to die, a lot. Doesn’t seem like a very pro gun violence message to me.

What does it explain?
That I really need the pandemic to end so I can sell these off in a garage sale?

(PS I need the 360 though. My seven year old smart TV is already an antique that can’t handle the updated streaming apps…I need to use the game console to watch things like CBS All Access or Disney+)

Because in a game, you can play again after dying, doesn’t work that way out in the real world.
How many people join the military only to be surprised to learn that if they get shot they can’t just hide behind a barrel and wait to heal.
