Once more, people are trying to prove that video games are the root of all violence in our youth. I gotta say, this is pretty stupid. They should try the same tests on someone who watches a violent movie, or reads a violent book. Hell, they should test people using all types of genres. It's our mind that immerses us in video games, books, and movies and makes that our reality at that time so of course there will be some immediate effects. To say that video games make the youth raged antisocial killing machines is asinine. Yes, some people may behave violently because of video games, but I bet those same impressionable people would also react that way to other violent mediums.
