video games are already being blamed for the vt shootings. surprised? im not...?

Question

So doctor phil and others are already blaming video games for the VT shootings. i was quite honestly surprised that wasnt the first thing i heard. i for one am sick of people jumping on video games/heavy metal music/etc, saying they are to blame for things like this. If you blame a video game for your actions, you obviously have delusions or some mental illness that needs to be addressed. but people are saying that video games are to blame because they glorify violence. i play video games. i know lots of people who do, and since i play several online multiplayer games, i am willing to say i know millions of people who play, and have no issues distinguishing reality and a video game. video games are not to blame. they may contribute, but placing blame soley on them is just rediculous. in the transcript from larry king, dr phil's first words included "video games" not mental illness. your thoughts?
