I've said it before, and I'll say it many times more...

If you kid goes nuts and shoots up a place its not because of the video games he plays its because he had problems to begin with because normal people don't do things like that. Normal people realize the difference between pixels and people.

Instead of trying to pass this, why don't they work on coming up with a way to reward spending time with your kid?

me too. I'm really shaking my head. Anyone who can read and type in a google search would know that, with our current data, any claims that exposure to video games causes aggressive behavior is completely spurious. Presumably a legislator has access to these sorts of people if he can't do it himself.

this of course begs the question, what is with this crusade of his? why video games? Given his ability to ignore inconvenient facts, I can only conclude that it is personal.

I am planning of doing a research paper into this subject for an english class, so if I actually do it, I will post it when complete.
