  Did the 'Driver' who ran over the Sheep: Have to fix a car and PAY for it, to be able to go to work the next day? [  for example ]  Did they think about  the loss of the Sheep, to farmer's family?
 
   

  Honestly  I never felt the need to carry a real weapon, until  the first generation of boys solely raised on violent game's became adult's.   Now I fear, being without one. 
                             

I did feel bad even though they were 3D sheep. Because i love sheep. They hurt my bumper a little bit but my soul was crushed. Its a game ffs. 

As for your gun comment. Two games i mentioned, Doom 1 and 2 were released in 1993 and 1994 respectively. Wolfeinstein 3D was released in 1992. You simply cannot blame boys growing up and becoming adults as a reason for you getting a gun. It does not make sense as plenty of adults would have played these games too. 


Overall, i think its about time the whole world started to crack down on mental illness rather than simply blamimg video games. The games are not the underlying cause.

I agree with most of you, I also don't think that violent games cause violence in real life. 
Do games also have age restriction like movies, I think they have?

There is ratings on them yeah, but obviously it's impossible to control and you can easily just buy stuff online. They might prevent a young kid from buying something with nudity/violence if they went to the store to get it, but really parents should be managing what their kids look at, listen to, and play.

I am also "blessed" with an education in psychology of the growing mind in children, and your statement is not necessarily correct. Most people go through life fine even though they played violent games, saw violent movies or listened to violent music in their childhood. Most people are able to understand that there's a line between fantasy and real life. The American media makes it seems like school shooters, for instance, murdered a number of people because they played World Of Warcraft. Or because they listened to Marilyn Manson. The real issue though is gun control in combination with mental health options and focus on bullying in schools.

I couldn't disagree with you more and it's IMO a very narrow-minded statement.

It's true, since I started playing this game I've found myself challenging everyone I see to outfit fights.  This cycle of fashion has to end.

I visited the patriarchy and all I got was this externalised sense of self worth.  And an uncomfortable tshirt.

well,how many school shootings in the 90's when kids played mariocart?
now all these first person shooter games. the kids are losers and screwed up ftom internet and social media. they know they are worthless and thier life will be crap. but they shoot up the school and they become famous.
its the desparation of our times.
whether gun shooting,car rammings,bombings,mass stabbings.... suicides way up...
too many people in the world and no one gives a fuck. they just virtue signal on social media and think they are doing something in the real world.

too many people in the world and no one cares. if you have 8 billion dollars and you lose a few hundred or few thousand would you care?
and the more people there are the less and less human life will have value.
compare how people in big citys act compared to small towns.
