Why are people so worried about banning video games and throwing people in jail for selling rated M games to minors? First of all..Violence in Video Games dosent cause violence in real life.
Shouldn’t Hillary Clinton and everybody else complaining about this issue worry about the real stuff like, violence and homeless people and poor people and the war?

The problem is, video games these days are becoming more and more realistic and violent. Grand Theft Auto has created the main problem by adding so much violence and explicit contents into its game. Not eveyone are convinced that violence in games doesn’t encourage violence in real life. There had been incidents in America regarding kids who got so much involved in virtual violence that they had turned it into reality. David Moore, an 18 year old kid has been arrested for killing three policemen in a police station after he was taken into custody for car theft. He claimed that he has played GTA:Vice City every day to be able to succeed in such violent activity. There are numorous more examples of such incidents inspired by virtual gaming violence.
While I agree that they are going a little overboard with trying to ban violent video games, I think there is more to their side of the issue than people may realize. Children today spend far too much time sitting and playing video games or watching TV or fooling around on the internet. This is a major factor in obesity in children in America and elsewhere. If children couldn’t purchase as many video games on their own (violent or not), they may be more likely to find other, more physically challenging, activities to pass the time.
i love video games i would probably kill my self if i couldn’t buy any more
