Issue 5

When Reading issue 5 I strongly agree with Anderson that violent video games encourage young adults and kids on violent act. Even in this issue when they tried to explain why video games did not influence violence in children they still could not support their reason and even straight that it does influence some acts of violence.
When you look at times before video games were around we had movies and TV shows that we had to worry about children getting influenced about violence in the wrong way. When video games first came out they were not that violent and had not as much effects as they do today.
Video games today look so real and are not realistic to how society works. Some video games have such violent acts in them and have no consequences to what would happen if they made those mistakes in the real world. Children can believe in things so easily like Santa and the Easter bunny so what stops them from believing  in their video games if they were to hurt someone like in their video games that there are no consequences.
