Quote:
Christopher J. Ferguson, an assistant professor specializing in aggression, culture, and applied social psychology at Texas A&M International University, stated in the document that violent video games are like the malleable toast spread.

"Violent video games are like peanut butter; they are harmless for the vast majority of kids but are harmful to a small minority with preexisting personality or mental health problems,"

Yeah...like anything is. Let a mentally unstable person read the Bible/Koran/Torah and he'll find reasons to do crazy shit. Let him listen to a Beatles song and he'll find messages in there that will tell him to do crazy shit. Give him a knife or a gun and he'll think it's a good idea to see what it does on the mailman the next day. :roll:

How about they make a study that documents how we can stop mental jobs from going coo-coo instead of trying to link it to external factors which are clearly largely unrelated?
