| 77. And a gay response on Dungeons and Dragons |
|
It's a GAME. FANTASY. ESCAPISM.
It's reality that's causing people to lose hope, run out of things to live for, and kill themselves.
This "Doctor" can go malpractice himself.
Oh, and violence de-sensitization? Shows like the X-Files with their excessive gore are more likely to do so; and having grown up on that sort of thing, I am LIVING PROOF that it's a load of bunk to suggest games and such desensitize. Provided that the context is not made to resemble reality. (which is why GTA III got to me and Doom3 did not.)
