2. I disagree. Violent Video Games only add to the cruelty in our culture.
Edited on Wed Oct-22-03 03:31 PM by KoKo01
And, we have a duty to protect those who are weaker than we are who might be influenced by some of the more violent games. What is the social value to some of these games? When does entertainment in the eyes of one person become someone elses excuse to act out fantasy from the viewing or participating in a particularly violent game.

I know my feeling about this is very unpopular on DU, but we've reached a time in America when we need to think about violence and when it's used for entertainments purpose to line the pockets of another CEO.
