Violent Video Games

“Don’t you think that video games like this encourage kids to kill?” This question was posed to me while playing Call of Duty: Black Ops recently. I took time out of my 7 kill streak to answer their question with another question. “When you watch the evening news and they show images of a traffic accident, does that give you the urge to go wreck your car?” After awaiting a response, and losing my streak right before I got my Chopper Gunner reward, I decided to answer it for them. “Of course not, because you are a sane individual.”
