Video games don’t cause violent crime

[Truth Detector]

Well your comparison is shallow and ignorant.

IRONY.

Video games are entertainment. We all know that the bad guys in the games aren't real. However, Trump is telling people that there is an invasion of rapists going on.

LIE and LAME.

He also celebrates violence against protesters and reporters.

LIE and LAME.

This is a "president" who is telling people violence is alright to use against people you don't like and that we're being invaded by people you should consider your enemy.

LIE and LAME.

Do you ever post anything that isn't a LIE and LAME? I see that you love parroting the false narrative the FAKE media feeds you like a gullible, naive twat.

Why are you so angry and such a liar?

In psychology, desensitization is a treatment or process that diminishes emotional responsiveness to a negative, aversive or positive stimulus after repeated exposure to it.

TRUE!

 

[Truth Detector]

Yes, he is. Or more specificially, his nationalist, xenophobic rhetoric.

Trump doesn't use nationalist, xenophobic rhetoric you lying twat.

 

[Truth Detector]

What an excellent point.

It was stupid and FALSE. But then, you're a lying dishonest twat with a low IQ.

When Maxine Waters said this, top Democrats like Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi rebuked her and condemned any attacks on Trump cabinet members. So while Waters' words are dangerous, they were severely undercut by her own party.
Republicans don't do that with Trump. They either try to justify what he says, or they pretend he never said it.

That's because he didn't say it. You leftists just think he did.

Weak and STUPID; but at least you are consistent.

Yeah it's a crock of of shit, like the lack of prays in our schools cause violence too?!!

Kevin McCarthy blamed violent video games for mass shootings over the weekend, and Donald Trump did the same at Monday’s press conference singling out “the gruesome video games that are now commonplace” to blame for creating “a culture that celebrates violence.”

This is a bit rich coming from a man who ran on a promise to “bomb the shit out of ’em” and has repeatedly floated the idea of pardons for accused war criminals.

It also flies in the face of the basic reality that the United States has a much higher murder rate than any other rich country, even though video games are widely available in Europe and Japan.

If that is true then why the age rating?

Oh, I know. Saint Trump would never say anything racist or violent.

By the way, what is a Leftist? You seem to be obsessed with them, but I doubt you even know what they are.

 

[StoneByStone]

Yes, you do.

Actually, I know Trump doesn't believe what he says. But his supporters think he's serious when he talks about an invasion of rapists.

 

[StoneByStone]

Maybe other countries never had an Obama-like character preaching racism, division, fear and hatred for their country while in office for 8 years
and condoned violent riots in the streets. This is what the now 22 year-olds were raised in and "influenced" by.

Yup. Obama was the one saying there is an invasion of rapists coming from Mexico.

 

[StoneByStone]

Mass shootings in Canada are very rare, unlike here, were we have liberal gun laws.

And a president who at this point is practically encouraging it.

 

[LV426]

Japan has no mass shootings because Japan has no video games.

What did he say that was racist (other than what you think he said, but didn't)?

I know they're anti-American, just as you are.

 

[RB 60]

Show us where or how he is "practically encouraging it."

So I decided to take a look at these links and the common theme among all of them is that they can't establish the relationship you want them to establish;

From literally the first link's conclusion:

In conclusion, we found that, compared with playing low-violence video games for <2 hours per day, playing high-violence video games for ≥2 hours per day was significantly associated with a higher number of depressive symptoms among preadolescent youth. However, the magnitude of the association was small and a causal relationship cannot be inferred.

So you're here misrepresenting studies to argue that video games, and no guns, are why kids act out in America in mass shootings.

So I guess there are no mass shootings in Japan because Japan has no video games?

 

[LV426]

Show us where or how he is "practically encouraging it."

He called Mexican immigrants "criminals", "rapists", and "drug dealers" and speaks of an "invasion" and then stood there and grinned when someone screamed out "kill them" at his rally.

So a Leftist is anyone who is Anti-American?

JK, Trump has never said or tweeted anything racist. He's never encouraged people to beat up protesters or journalists. He's never lied about there being an invasion of Mexican rapists. It's all FAKE NEWS.

 

[RB 60]

No, he said a few come here, not all of them were. Get your lies straight.
