played violent video games all my life and haven't murdered anyone. That guy speaking for the NRA is an idiot. You cannot kill some one with a violent video game but you can with a gun. I've seen violent movies also as well as millions of other people. This stuff is just rightwing propaganda so the Right can support their point of view. They will never concede they are wrong, just like the tax issues. They are just like a cult. so this calamity Jane will still support her guns.
