Have you ever come across something you had never had any experience with before? Did the experience have an effect on you? Coming in contact with violence- something some of us, especially young people, have not come in contact with before, has an effect on them. We should not have violence in the world at all- nor should we promote and subsidize something so negative in nature as violence. Guns don't kill people- people kill people is the thinking here and it is as wrong as it gets. Take away the vehicle and you have no way of exposing and disseminating the message or thought to others. Grow up soon- if you, or someone you care about, is ever personally involved with violence, your attitude will change. Expand your mind.<br><br>love and Light, reverend silversun  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Reverend Silversun]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 26th 2007 12:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Study of Studies Shows No Link Between Video Games and Violence]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have a 7 yr old son who has and xbox 360.  He plays some games rated for T because even ninja turtles are rated T, but if there is any guns or people on people violence he is not allowed to play.  He knows this and will even read the back to see if it has guns and if it does he puts it back and says, "I can't have this game because it has guns, I can only have laser weapons like buzz lightyear."  Spiderman is the only exception of guns and there is absolutly no blood, just the bad man shooting in the air till spidy wraps him up.  For years I didn't even let my children watch Tom and Jerry  because of the violence, however, if the parent teaches the child right from wrong, a simple cartoon is not going to make a difference.  Parents need to step up and educate their children in what is real and fake and good and evil.  Just like the controversy of the new movie coming out "the golden compas"  It looks like a good movie and my son wants to see it.  I will probably take him because even though the story was written by an athiest, my son is strong in his faith of God and no movie will change that.  He has seen all the Harry Potter films and has never attempted in flying on a broomstick or even pretended to do magic.  So, I believe that the only children who do bad things and are blaming video games is due to poor parenting on allowing a child too young to play them.  Mature ratings say 17 yrs and older...  Parents step up and make sure you are watching what your kids are doing.  My son has friends with M games and he will not play and will come tell me and ask why they can and he cant.  When I explain that the game has people hurting people he looses interest and understands.  I am not a perfect parent, just an involved one.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kristinna]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2007 8:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Study of Studies Shows No Link Between Video Games and Violence]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</guid><description><![CDATA[hey rev lick ma balls i never once ever thought about hurting someone else because i played gta or halo or unreal tournament nor man hunt and manhunt2 and both the columbine shooting games on the internet an a hell of alot more so whoever you know or is that stupid or pathetic to copy a game is just ridculously stupid so either your a pycho who needs to go to therapy obviously the name speaks for its self but , or whomever you know is f*cked up in the head seriously ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ncaawalt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2007 8:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Study of Studies Shows No Link Between Video Games and Violence]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</guid><description><![CDATA[ight srry my mistake krisstina is freakin looney and controlling ur son is 17 and is a sissy how many times he come home beat up let me guess you lost count hahaha ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[hahaha]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2007 8:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Study of Studies Shows No Link Between Video Games and Violence]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</guid><description><![CDATA[BULLS**T!

But, that dosnt make me want to go out and  kill a bunch of people any more than i want to jump barrels thown by a crazed gorrilla. i rember back  then conservitive christians were picking on dungons and dragons or ozzy osborne for the misdeeds of someone. what i think is america needs a wake up call  that people need to take responsability for themselves and not pull some bullcrap excuse out of their butts.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sherwood]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2007 8:44PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Study of Studies Shows No Link Between Video Games and Violence]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</guid><description><![CDATA[ I have always allowed my children to play video games of their choosing. I have no regrets. Both boys are non-violent anti-killing, anti-war with no aggression either in, or outside the home. The hand eye coordination learned from such games has allowed both to become gifted musicians with advanced computer skills. I watched Bugs Bunny and Road Runner where I learn to appreciate classical music and learned communication skills. Don't kill the messenger.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Joe]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2007 8:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Study of Studies Shows No Link Between Video Games and Violence]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</guid><description><![CDATA[It's about time somebody started to prove the theory of violent video games creating violent people wrong.  I played violent video games constantly growing up, as did my younger brothers (we still do actually)...none of us have shown any violent behavior.  All of our friends played them...none of them are violent.  I've actually found games to be a good way to relieve stress and release pent up aggression.  Personally, I'd rather my kids take their anger out on a video game character than a fellow person.  It just takes a parent who's interested enough in their children to stop for a second and remind them that it's just a video game and not to repeat anything in real life.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2007 8:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Study of Studies Shows No Link Between Video Games and Violence]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have been playing M rated games for 7 years(ever since I was six,oh that would make it eight years)and I have never thought of beating up someone.in fact my family has a history of short tempers and video games help me calm down.instead of getting mad and go killing someone I play vieo games and rip someone in half or fry them to a crisp.it lets me get rid of my anger and helps my gaming skiils.its a win-win situation.(in all reasoning pacman is the most violent video game.In GTA or Manhunt2 I dont remember being able to eat people.)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Adam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2007 9:06PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Study of Studies Shows No Link Between Video Games and Violence]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</guid><description><![CDATA[Jayne, First of all, i Doubt you even have a child, second of all, using bulls**t as a word is just as bad as letting your "kid" play an m rated game, and third of all, i am not beliveing anyone who cant even spell Accelerated right.

It's a far more likely explanation for your kids' having trouble doing the same than their playing video games.<br>A well adjusted child with good role models for dealing with anger and aggressive feelings is not going to turn violent just from playing video games. As with anything, exercise common sense. You know your children and their personal limits best.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 27th 2007 9:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Study of Studies Shows No Link Between Video Games and Violence]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2007/11/26/study-of-studies-shows-no-link-between-video-games-and-violence/</guid><description><![CDATA[ YES!
