Anyone play video games?

Thats like saying guns dont kill people the bullets fired from them do. How is the bullet fired? By the person pulling the trigger... This country needs to get away from the PC BS and take some personal accountablility. Violant video games dont make you want to kill people nor does playing a video game 10 hours a day like a crack addict ruin a marriage. Its the person doing the act not the end product of the act. I use to tell my wife would she rather have me home in the office playing on my computer or out at the bar drinking away my paycheck every night. Im still married so you guess which she picked. Sorry to get on a rant but after reading Kris Kringle's post I had to add my $.02

Indeed, it really does not matter what influences are present, or what tools are available....a concious decision is a concious decision. Smith & Wesson did not make the man a murderer, nor did Nintendo make a man decide that the game system was more important than his family or his duties. McDonalds did not create his weight problem....etc.
