video games contribute to the problem, but the media in general is 90% responsible...
i can go online and watch an innocent person get their head cut off by terrorists! lets boycott the internet! but does that contribute to violence in jacks eyes? nope... its all video games...
i can go to the store... buy a rated R movie like the devils rejects or hostel... and that does not have a system stopping someone under 17 from buying it? does that have innocent people being slaughtered... yep... but does that contribute to violence in jacks eyes? nope... its all video games...
i watch the news and read the paper everyday, they show dead bodies and glorify the violence.
violence influencing/desensitization video games = 1% media in general = 99%
