Re: Exxtra Extra! Uninformed Ex-Politician looks like Jackass!

OMG, I loved that article. I thought I was going to piss my pants because I was laughing so hard. Wow, what an idiot. He is completely wrong in his assumption that violence in video games, movies, TV, etc caused the youth to become violent. How do I know this? It could because I have a degree in Social Psychology Most teenagers that have resorted to violence was due to lack of an authoritative parent figure, their socio-economic status, and their individual self-esteem and confidence. There have been kids in the middle class who played the most violent video games created, but did not even show any sign of aggressive behaviors at all. It is also noted that these same children were also rated as having a number of friends and high levels of self-confidence. So to Mr. Thompson……READ A BOOK!!! In fact, read psychological research that has been conducted by many leading experts in this field.
