Does Video Games Really help create School Shootings?
The short answer YES they do. That doesn’t mean everyone who plays violent games will become a shooter. It just moves them towards seeking violent solutions. There are usually a number of other factors like repressed emotions and taking medications for ADD, ADHD or Depression. The depression medication is also likely to lead to someone shooting them self not others. The bottom line when someone plays violent games or watches Violence on TV / DVD etc, their subconscious doesn’t know it’s not real. It makes it harder for the player / watcher to live a happy balanced life. When I visited the Isle of Pines and saw children brought up without TV or video games the contrast was amazing.
