I'll start:
Topic:
Defend/Refute Video game violence leading to aggression/violence in people.
Personally, this just pisses me off. If someone is going to be violent, it's not the video games sending them subliminal messages or whatever the unenlightened people believe. I hear about all these school shootings being related to games like Doom and Counter-Strike(PLEASE!) and I have this absurd urge to smack the newscasters. Honestly, how many of them do you think are familiar with the gaming environment even in the slightest? The kids probably played Doom or whatever for like a week because they got it for christmas.
