oh my God. Check this out. This graph I found on Wikipedia shows a sharp decline in violent crimes over the years starting at about 1993(many other graphs online show this). Do you realize that this is about the same time the original Mortal Kombat and Doom were released. A decrease in violent crimes since Mortal Kombat and Doom.

I doubt it, I mean Im sure there are people that say that its been proven, but why should a violent video game lead to violent behavior when its the parents job to teach right from wrong, as well as game from reality.

Violent behavior leads to violent video games.
The chicken or the head??
Also, I went to the Kaiser Foundation website and found nothing regarding violent video games.

I don't believe so. And as a matter of fact i believe that violent games are good for you to play, it allows a lot of people to vent frustrations and pent up anger safely, and less crimes are committed, because people become more stress free. IMO.

No. I performed violent video games from while i became into 6 and that i became right into a extreme-high quality person, and social. there became into one case of infants commiting against the regulation because of the fact of GTA, yet that became right into a exposure stunt.

Sources? That's a question with a divide the size of the Grand Canyon between those who say they do and those that say they don't. There is NO _conclusive_ *evidence* on EITHER side!
