Ok great. Lets say you're right. Lets say your studies are right. The brain can't be manipulated into committing violent acts by audio/visual stimulation.I haven't seen a video game advocating mowing down border crossers though? And if studies are BS, then we're just relying on preconceptions and this conversation is going nowhere. It'd be like trying to discuss the origin of man, disregarding evolution and the fossil record and giving intelligent design equal weight because of "belief". Is a butcher or a surgeon more likely to be violent for experiencing gore?
You'd probably find a stronger link of sports fueling testosterone production in teens and violent behavior than you'd do video games

Politicians Again Blame Video Games for Shootings, Despite Evidence
Said one expert: “The data on bananas causing suicide is about as conclusive.”
According to a policy statement from the media psychology division of the American Psychological Association, “Scant evidence has emerged that makes any causal or correlational connection between playing violent video games and actually committing violent activities.”
Chris Ferguson, a psychology professor at Stetson University, led the committee that developed the policy statement. In an interview Monday, he said the evidence was clear that violent video games are not a risk factor for serious acts of aggression. Neither are violent movies, nor other forms of media.
“The data on bananas causing suicide is about as conclusive,” said Dr. Ferguson. “Literally. The numbers work out about the same.”
The Supreme Court has also rejected the idea. In striking down a California law that banned the sale of some violent video games to children in 2011, the court savaged the evidence California mustered in support of its law.
“These studies have been rejected by every court to consider them, and with good reason: They do not prove that violent video games cause minors to act aggressively,” Antonin Scalia wrote in the majority opinion. He added: “They show at best some correlation between exposure to violent entertainment and minuscule real-world effects, such as children’s feeling more aggressive or making louder noises in the few minutes after playing a violent game than after playing a nonviolent game.”
.....but those same individuals can hear one Trump rally and be sent over the edge enough to go into a Walmart with an AK and gun down 20+ innocent people.
You don't get it----there would be no gunman.Your trail would just give yall up to the gunman.
the key word there is "finally". Thats what he was waiting for.Tony Stark's unrelenting glee at the fact that an apparent Trump supporter finally killed a bunch of innocents is very telling.
Why are people saying that the murderer is a right winger? Did anyone actually read his manifesto? He is a nut job anti-imperialist and environmentalist. When was the last time that a right winger was labeled an anti-imperialist?https://fox17.com/news/local/tennes...esto-full-of-presidential-rally-greatest-hits

The American lifestyle affords our citizens an incredible quality of life. However, our lifestyle is
destroying the environment of our country. The decimation of the environment is creating a massive
burden for future generations. Corporations are heaing the destruction of our environment by
shamelessly over harvesting resources. This has been
a problem for decades. For example, this
phenomenon is brilliantly portrayed in the decades
old classic “The Lorax”. Water sheds around the
country, especially in agricultural areas, are being depleted. Fresh water is being polluted from farming
and oil drilling operations. Consumer culture is creating thousands of tons of unnecessary plastic waste
and electronic waste, and recycling to help slow this down is almost non-existent. Urban sprawl create
s inefficient cities which unnecessarily destroys millions of acres of land. We even use god knows how
many trees worth of paper towels just wipe water of
f our hands. Everything I have seen and heard in my
short life has led me to believe that the average A
merican isn’t willing to change their lifestyle, even if
the changes only cause a slight inconvenience. The
government is unwilling to tackle these issues
beyond empty promises since they are owned by corporations. Corporations that also like immigration
because more people means a bigger market for their
products. I just want to say that I love the people
of this country, but god damn most of y’all are just too stubborn to change your lifestyle. So the next
logical step is to decrease the number of people in
America using resources. If we can get rid of enough
people, then our way of life can become more sustainable.
