Conspiracy #4325

Jack Thompson is a lawyer who believes video games and movies are the roots of all violence and crime. Why is he wrong? Well he claims that people who kill play video games to train to keep their heart rate down. Why is that wrong? For one thing when people play video games their heart rates actually goes up because they are a thrilling expirence nothing more. He also claims games like Counter Strike are needlessly hyper-realistic and are training a new generation of killers. Why is that wrong? If you play more than 2 minutes of Counter Strike you will either laugh at the absurdity of it all or take it in, believe it, and wonder how anyone ever killed anyone...Why are people really violent? Human nature. We are primal beings just dressed up in fancy suits. Also watch Bowling for Columbine by Micheal Moore and see that violence does not stem from anything but Americans inbred fear for the different and inclination towards the status quo.
Plus street crime has been around forever. Adventure on the Atari 2600 didn't inspire people to kill one another. Monopoly didnt inspire people to murder one another. Hell, cave painting didnt start violence. We are just stupid.
According to him video games are influencing all our behaviors why dont we just hand out some motivational CEO games? We would all be rich non-violent people. Also I would love to see the people that actually trained using CS. They would be bouncing retards constantly shouting their squeaky ass voices over the over strained bandwidth.
