The lights are on
"I think video games is a bigger problem than guns, because video games affect people," the senator from Tennessee told MSNBC in response to a question about proposed gun control legislation that would require universal background checks.
Words fail me.
Failing the ability to live in a world where viewpoints like this weren't part of the political mainstream, I'd settle for a world where people like Senator Alexander had legitimate, good-faith discussions with folks like Adam Sessler instead of grandstanding about how (to uncharitably paraphrase the Senator) guns don't kill people, video games kill people.
It seems we have no Congressional allies, neither on the Left nor the Right.
Here is an idea; don't ban guns or video games. The media and politicians from both sides try to point the blame of these massacres on everything beside the person responsible.
The stupidity of politicians...
another fucktard in government thinking videogames are the work of satan what else is new. may i point out that the bible has more cathartic violence then any game made every, jsut sayin
What a f*cking idiot.

Hey guys, I just played the Sims...
Who wants to join me in a Gang Rape?
(Seriously, politicians are stupid...)
Video games ARE, sir, video games ARE.
So this dung-bag who has probably never played a video game in his life thinks he's qualified to judge the sociological impact that video games may or may not have on the population. Gimme a break. I'm so sick of the out of touch old farts who wiped out our economy, start wars with other countries, constantly bicker over nickel and dime crap instead of doing their job try and hang this mess on video games. Now watch tomorrow he'll issue the same lame worthless public apology the other clown did. What a effin loser, residents of Tenn. get this idiot out of office please.
Anything to avoid the real issues.
Video games, movies, books, and television all exist in countries around the world. But only in America do they make people behave violently? Tell me another one, please.
Yeah, like yesterday, my Madden NFL 13 game shot my bro with a gun.
