: Bullshit, or what?
I listened to a talk radio show on NPR from Michigan State University about the very subject desccribed in that wrong-headed article.
Those people (obviously from the bible-belt) arguing that games poison the minds of the nation's children fail to take into account that in their youth they did the exact same thing, training each other to kill without remorse, when they played 'army' or worse, 'cowboys and indians' which adds a healthy dose of racism and ethnic stereotyping into the mix.
Fools.
