I admit to being somewhat of a moderate these past few months, swinging between the left and right, but now I can say I'm definitely not voting for Hillary.

"Violent video games increase aggressive behavior as much as lead exposure decreases children's IQ scores." You must either be stupid or bought to say something like this.

At least I'm not Anthony Burch.

does this mean she played a shit load of video games?
>>
>>69665272
If by "Play" you mean "Drank"
and by "Video Games" you mean "Lead Contaminated Water"... then yeah, apparently.
>>
just like /pol/ to defend video games. they're literally childrens toys, gamers are no different from bronies.

She's right though. When you're full grown you'll learn to accept reality as well.
>>
>>69665097
I'm voting for Hillary and I tend to agree with her on this as I do most everything.
>>
>>69665097

she outright says it's okay for adults to play whatever vidya they want though. It's just ... not letting kids buy M rated video games.. and the ship on rating video games and trying to restrict access for minors buying them sailed decades ago... when she was first lady.

go to /v/ if you wanna see if she's correct or not

>Violent video games increase aggressive behavior as much as lead exposure decreases children's IQ scores
Is is fairly accurate. Violent video game does increase aggressive behaviours because of the amount of time it consumes in the lives of a young person. They are spending majority of their time in an aggressive environment. It's no surprise they immerse and adapt to their surroundings as children do and it leaks out into real life.

Young people instead of focusing on their studies are either online, or playing video games and the appeal in games is violence, its a huge market.

So Clinton is on the ball with this one, she should ban video games and make America whole again. Clinton will win.

You don't have to play video games to see that Hilarie's comment is retarded. It's natural and healthy for humans to indulge in fake sport violence. Animals do this too, even domestic ones that are not violent. We are biological creatures with a predisposition toward enjoying violence but this doesn't mean we are without reason
>>
>>69666087
Except they're studies that disapprove it.
Saying video games make you violent is the same as saying Dungeons and Dragons makes you a Satanist.
>>
>>69666087
The people who start nonsensical violence are drunktards in bars, usually with little to no education from my experience. Not a geek who plays 6 hours a day on average league of legends lol.
>>
That isn't the takeaway.

The lesson is that you can't believe a thing she says. If some videogame union or lobbyist group gave her a few million, she would say the exact opposite.
>>
>>69665097
Do it it Hillary. Take their games away. You'll suddenly have a huge generation moving to places like /pol/ seething with rage and frustration. Games are one of the last places those people go to hide and I think youre underestimating their numbers.

Well, they do make you dumb though

Go away Bernie nobody likes you and you're going to lose New York.

Exactly. That is why I say she must either be "Stupid or bought"... How can we trust a politician that will so quickly parrot something like this because she was paid to?
>>
>>69666253
>implying that every game is shitty as fuck

Tunnel vision.

People are naturally violent
Videogames are more of an outlet if anything
I mean come on I only stabbed my mum twice, once after playing Pac-man for 2 days straight and the other after Toy story on ps1
>>
>>69665097
She is right though, now does it have the same impact on every kid? no, but can it sway them? yes, if you can agree that music can sway your thoughts and emotion which is proved by science and has a huge impact on children especially girls who listen to songs from this whores, than I don't see why you are blinded to the fact that video games can also sway certain people. Music, games, and movies can all sway your opinion on things, your feelings, and emotions or give you ideas you cannot deny this. Just look at the news media and how it can literally control your reaction to things and brainwash a whole nation, this isn't a conspiracy its a scientifically proven fact.
>>
>>69665097
Trump has slammed violence in video games as well. Truth be told, nobody over 50 knows jack shit about video games and then saying stupid shit is to be expected.

If I give a retard a cube that bounces and he has fun with that doesn't mean it's good entertainment.

I never said I liked Bernie. In fact, he is my least favorite candidate. I'm a social liberal with capitalistic opinions, that is why I'm quite moderate. Bernie is too much of a fucking socialist for me. I'm probably going to vote for trump or not at all.
>>
It's pretty accurate OP.

I remember at school, me and the other kids would be peacefully playing rugby and then some kid that had been playing Resident Evil all night would come by and pick a fight with us.

Have you ever be to a video game conference? You watch your fucking back there.

B-B-U-T. I-ITS D-DIFFERENT WHEN TRUMP DOES IT !

>>69666769
OP here. Well, I guess I'm between a rock and a hard place on this one... On one hand, that tweet was slightly more recent... but on the other hand, Clinton actually tried proposing policy backed by a third party.
>>
>>69666907

On the one hand, Hillary was endorsing a law that was to prevent MINORS from getting violent video games, while still agreeing that adults should be allowed to play violent and pornographic video games as their choice.

On the other hand, Trump made a blanket statement that "video game violence must be stopped!"
>>
Definitely not a fan of Hilary.. but who seeks to gain from this?

>>69666192
This, we used to hunt to live, do it makes sense it'd be in our genes to enjoy it. And just like sex it's gives us a release

Interactive Jew is addictive, and a detriment to society as a whole, but it doesn't make you violent.
>>
>>69666769
hillary complains it causes violence, but the link is unproven

trump says it creates monsters, not killers. what would you call something that dwells in basements, smells like ass, big and hairy, and never sees the light of day. hes right.

Crime has dropped to record lows because of video games
>>
>>69666087
You are not completely wrong, though you are pretty far from correct also.

Video games are objectively helpful to mental and physical development. In moderation.

With concerns to mental development, there are multiple studies that state children who played video games on a regular basis (usually ~10-12 hours per week) had noticeably higher reaction times, were generally faster to come to make decisions, had higher rates of retention in school, and generally scored higher on various subjects (except for subjects like English. There is literally no disparity in the two groups in such scenarios). Literally any longitudinal study you can find that studies the developmental effects of young children come to these conclusions.

Physically, there is increased hand eye coordination, and generally improved motor skills.

The only time videogames become an issue in the least is when people start spending 40+ hours a week playing video games, letting them consume there lively hood. That's the only time anything "bad" happens.

Personally, I believe that violence in video games doesn't affect children at all... at least over the age of 12-13. Proposing draconian legislation to not only prevent, but possible criminalize those who supply children with video games is much more impacting than some business man's opinion. Trump never really fleshed out an argument in that really small 13 letter twitter post. I'd prefer to hear his reasoning, justification, and plan of action more in detail before completely demonizing him... but what I am given, he is just as wrong as her.
>>
>>69667325
Correlation does not necessarily mean causation. Just because crime rate has dropped, doesn't mean it is because of video games... though, it is possible it is a contributing factor.
>>
>>69667552
Well, it does happen quite often that giving people an outlet for their lower instincts does result in lower crime rates. We've seen the same thing happen with readily available pornography.
>>
>>69667654
Again, a possible factor. It could be that poverty is at an all time low? It could be increased feeling of surveillance? Better law enforcement? It could be any or none of these things. I'm just saying until I see definite proof before I draw a conclusion. However, your argument does make sense and I do agree with you.
