So, none of the problems we see on the roads are caused by video games.
The violence in schools is not cause by video games. The violence we see
anywhere is not a result of video games. Nor is littering, racism,
discrimination, bad driving, or any other problem we see in our society.
We blame the games because we have to blame something other than
ourselves. The popularity of the games is a symptom of how the people
playing them (or maybe one might say people who are addicted to them?)
were raised, taught (or not taught, as it were), and a breakdown in
other areas of society, not the other way around.
Heaven forbid we actually take responsibility for our own actions.
Sir, you have hit the proverbial nail right on the head. I couldn't have
said it better myself.
