Through the air

Here's something.. I hate doing this, taking entry ideas from another site, but when I read this I just thought "I gotta share this a little bit of it anyway... From the reddit site: TOPIC : Why does the mainstream media blame video games for "desensitizing" people when they themselves use stories of murder, war and other crimes to draw in viewers?              

ANSWERS :

"The media aim to maximize their audiences and push their own agenda. Violent stories attract viewers and violent video games are a competing substitution.
In short: What? You've never seen a hypocrite before?"

" Ha yes, but it seems that some people are blatantly ignoring the fact that their kids and themselves open themselves up to violence, war, rape and death on a daily basis by watching the news, but when a child does it on his own by playing video games suddenly it is 10 times worse."

" A nation thats been at WAR for decades. Generations of people idolizing the military.

And its video games making you violent?"

" Genghis Khan must have had some sick-ass video games."

" Just imagine how different history would've been if Hitler hadn't spent all those hours playing Xbox."


I don't know why the world is becoming an extremely cruel place to be but it seems like it is becoming more common to stick up for the gun loving lot, the rednecks as it were, then to come up with some sort of reasonable response for the shootings that are starting to become common place... There may never be gun control laws in place in this country.. But the reality is this is just a very cruel country to live in and it doesn't matter if you live in a big city or rural area it is just the way it is anymore, welcome to the life in the Thunderdome time.. Remember Thunderdome (Mad Max sequel)..  Oh what fun..
