Video games being blamed for gun violence? Thats nonsense, this is what i'm going to be talking about, the ones who think it does, the ones who think It doesn’t and my own opinion. But before we begin, just think about It yourself and how you grasp this topic.


Some who think It does affect children that all the violent, fighting, shooting, kill and sex etc contribute towards these violent behaviors. They say that a kid who is young hasn’t really fully developed their mind yet, so in saying this easily influences them. There’s other reasons and facts out there that prove this theory otherwise, like cult work, and abuse but blaming video games, no. But then there's the other side who think otherwise.


Now on the side who don’t think that it contributes are saying that instead of It being the games and makers to blame, It should be the parents who neglect to see that they’re letting their children play these games which clearly state 17+. Others reasons this may be Is because the parent Is always busy and fails to notice what’s going on with their child, and the child may get angry in ways he/she can’t explain so in many cases leading to shootings. If my opinion were to get in this I would back up the side who think games don’t affect children’s behaviors towards these matters. I, myself play video games and pretty violent ones like Mortal Kombat and Call Of Duty: Black Ops 2 and I’ve never had any intent towards shooting someone or beating them. I’ve played for years so why am I not having these behaviors? It just goes to show that sometimes Americans resort to desperate measures.



It seems like nonsense, but people may think It as true, but not too many voices are heard, more opinions would help. So get out there and get your voice heard!

I would like to prove that video games are the cause.
