Default New York Post writer suffers from head up ass syndrome

Wow. I read one of the worst articles I've ever read on the New York Post Online today.

Retarded Article

He talks about how selling violent video games like Grand Theft Auto is

"10,000 times worse than the worst thing anybody thinks Michael Jackson ever did to a little boy"

So...selling a violent video game geared towards adults is as bad as molesting 10,000 children simultaneously?

These people fail to realize that people are messed up with or without video games. If your kid shoots somebody, i doubt it's because of a video game. It's more likely because you aren't doing you job as a parent. The more you make sure your child is aware of whats wrong or right and where the line is between real and fantasy the less likely he/she is to shoot somebody.

But these days video games are the scape goat for acts of violence these days.

It's like how in the 80's heavy metal music was blamed for the rise in teen suicide.

But if you haven't reead the article, do so now. The guy writing really has no clue what he's talking about.

He presents a poor argument. He doesn't really back up anything he says. He just rambles on making non-sensical claims left and right.

It's sad.
