I think this is bull****. Just because violence has increased in the past 20 years does NOT directly link it to only video games. I've been playing video games since I was 6 and I own almost all the violent games (Halo, Halo 2, all GTAs, Crackdown, Saints Row, Gears of War, both GRAWs, etc) which I have indeed completed on my own. I've never gotten frustrated over any of those games. I find myself getting more angry over games I cannot complete, rather than the game being violent itself.

Honestly, the children that are shooting schools are ALREADY mentally ill and their lives have been ruined from the start. It doesn't mean that their illness or retardation was caused or can be blamed on violent video games.
