    Many inanimate things such as television were treated as scapegoats. I guess video games are just having their turn.

    How about we keep the games but we don't fight wars with other men in other countries and kill them. Let's get the real enemy. It's not the gamers sitting in their homes that are doing harm to others. It is the politicians that command the armies that kill other people. Rise up and tell them to go fight their own wars.
