Well over the years im sure many of you have heard storys about how tv,games,movie,music and all the stuff we like are sending bad messages, well.. i think its stupid... i mean ive been playing games and watching tv for all my life and im not going on any killing sprees.. i don't understand how stupid someone has to be to copy what they see in a game or movie... i mean i saw the matrixs but you don't see me jumping off buildings or running on walls.. and ive played james bond but you dont see me shooting eveyone and sleeping with almost evey chick i meet (is that really a bad thing if i did?) i think the people who say these things need a serious reality check, and even if these people are copying what they see, shoot them or something, case you dont see everyone doing it, just thows messed up losers with no lives
your thoughts?

when the media says that all this entertainment is turning us into killers, it pisses me off. those morons have their 1 hour specials on columbine this, columbine that. big deal, they have 1 or 2 examples of fucked up kids who happened to play games. if you watched michael moore's movie, you also know they bowled. i don't see many bowlers going on killing spree besides those retards.
if kids are fucked up, its either A) the way they were raised, or B) they were just destined to be fucked.
stupid MuchMusic and their goddamn specials, they deserve to be taken off the face of the planet so no one has to hear their bullshit anymore

ya its been proven that most children who are abused are going to turned out messed up, so i dont think that has much to do with what you see or hear on tv, i mean one of my songs talks about all the bad things about the government, but you dont see me going around killing them, they just have some stupid problem with violence, well... then get killed cause we dont want to hear it...

The one thing that annoys me beyond almost anything is those incompetent "Parental groups" or "Mothers groups" That always complain aboot games like GTA or Doom for causing violence in our communities. That is cameldung x90090. Games are not meant to influence people to commit harmful acts. And anyone who does think that is seriously more insecure than a bowling ball on a verticle toothpick. If anyone is by chance influenced by one, then its just a matter of time before they would do it from something else and if so then simple to you nagging Mother Groups out there: DON'T BUY THE GAMES and there are ratings on games for a reason. If games influence people to commit such, why not go after other things like the basic knowings of life? The most Stupid question a parent can ask is something like "Where did you learn to steal?" WAKE UP, its basic in life for a child to learn what stealing it, don't think that someone special in just their life that only them have contact with made them know what it is, that is more incompetent than stealing. Stealing in a way can be classified as a human enstinct, if someone is desperate for something, they will take it. Just like in the animal kingdom, if a lion wants something, it takes it. You can't blame the lion "OH MY GOD IT LEARN THAT FROM GAMES/FRIENDS/MEDIA!" It's basic ways, live with it. Nothing is perfect, not the world, not humans or the way they are. Just because some kid did something and they have a 'violent' game, doesn't mean it influenced them. People who think that are the most influenced and need more help.

i agree, kids now adays dont learn from tv or games, most bad behavior is learned at school from people around you (not always frineds) like carls case, he was pressured into trying chewing tabbaco, what a loser.. its not the tv its the people who do it, and another thing, smoking parents asking their kids why they got into smoking, HELLO! WAKE UP MORON LOOK WHAT YOUR DOING!!, big whoop i see people smoke and drink on tv all the time, but that doenst mean im gonna go out and smoke all i can then wash it down with a beer evey day, i mean just cause a kid is violent its not from a game, i mean if a kid is caught doing open hart surgry on his cat what are they gonna do? take ER off the air? or if a kid is caught trying to redecorate a room and breaks something, are they gonna blame TLC? no why? cause its what most parents like to watch, thats the main point partents dont play games so they dont care if they are around or not, but when in fact when kids have no games, they having nothing to do, they are more likely to get in trouble...now.. whos fault would that be?

Well thats not what they think, they think school is the same as when they went there, well.. it isnt, trust me... i remeber when i went to that dance thing and we got to the school, the first thing we heard students talking about was non other than the pot they just smoked and how high they where... people just aint the same, in our schools, there is more peer pressure than ever... but they just cant live with the fact, schools aint safe anymore...

well we don't really know how it was back in the day for people. all we know is what we've been shown on tv or heard from a friend of a friend who knew someone who went to school years ago. they had to go through peer pressure too. there was ciggarettes & alcohol back then. im sure school was still a hell hole for them. back on the subject of games.. you know that kid Ashad Kahn? well i was talking to him in Art and i was like man, he's the biggest moron ever. he thinks video games rot your brains and ruin your eyes. i argued with him i was like, oh yes, games are terrible with all the reading they expose children to and expand their imagination with every minute, yes very terrible. i don't really disagree wtih the eyes thing, but whatever, everything has a downside. in sports you get injury, with games you don't get the greatest eye sight, ah well. and ashad is quite the hypocrite, considering he plays PS2 & GC yet sticks with his argument about games are bad yatta yatta

games dont rot eyes, thats just an old wives tale.. too much tv is bad for the eyes yes, but thats only if you sit too close, its not gonna make then rot or anthing, its just not good for you
according to my parents school back in the day wasnt bad, it was all like non drugs and stuff, sure maybe on weekends they did, but not in school, thats asking for the whip...
on the topic of games, think about it, if your kids are always playing games after homework, is that really a bad thing? better than them walking around the streets at night isnt it? you decide...

Here is my cousin's article on tv/video games:
New this week, a teen kills themself/causes horrible mayhem when trying to reproduce a stunt from the tv show and movie "Jackass". Obviously these kids minds were taken over by what they saw and had absolutely no control over what they did. It's not their fault. Blame other people. Really. Also in the news, the game series Grand Theft Auto is corrupting children across the country because those pathetic little shits who represent a very minimal portion of the gaming community are too stupid to realize the consequences of their actions. Here is a comment from the mother: "I don't know what happened. I was inside watching TV, not paying attention to what my child was doing (because I don't care enough to know what they do), then all of a sudden he goes and does this. My child is perfect. It must be those damn video games. It's a conspiracy! We must lead a revolution against these horrid game producers who control our children's minds ! Let's show kids that they are in no way responsible for their actions by going after a company who FORCED little Tommy to pull that trigger. TOMMY IS INNOCENT. SCREW ALL OF YOU WHO DISAGREE. EXCUSE ME WHILE I GO STOMP ALL OVER SANE PEOPLE'S RIGHTS AND BAN SALE OF VIDEO GAMES TO KIDS RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO KNOW NOT TO KILL INNOCENT PEOPLE. I WAS GOING TO BLURT OUT SOME MORE OBVIOUS SHIT THAT EVERYONE SHOULD REALIZE INSTEAD OF BEING POLTICALLY CORRECT ASSHOLES WHO DON'T WANT TO FACE UP TO REALITY, BUT I FORGOT IT WHILE I WAS BUSY MAKING THAT ITALICIZED FONT. I'LL GET BACK TO YOU IF I REMEMBER MORE (NOT YELLING).

Toomy is innocent, yeah right, he PULLED THE TRIGGER IN COLD BLOOD, YOU IDIOT!
WHEN ARE THESE PEOPLE GONNA UNDERSTAND THAT KIDS DON'T KNOW BETTER TO DO SOME CRAZY SHIT LIKE THIS? IT'S HER FAULT CAUSE SHE WASN'T WATCHING HIM TAKING OUT A GUN, GOING OUTSIDE AND SHOOT SOME ONE. PARENTS THESE DAYS NEED TO STOP FOCUING ON THEIR LIFE SO MUCH AND DEAL WITH WHAT THEIR KIDS ARE DOING UNTIL THEY'RE RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH TO KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG.
I hate people like this.
