When I was a kid, other than Mario, only thing I had to play with was fire.

Those days are gone.

exactly, I think if kids dont have video games, like thugs... they will be on the streets and in the violence. That isn't toward all people, but some people need video games.

Everyone probably have a desire to do something they wouldn't otherwise be able to do in a game, say like go on a rampage of serial killing :)

I <3 fat chicks.

Basicly, all i did was read the first couple posts...

I think they shouldnt ban games, or tv, but if they do ban games, the shouldnt ban tv, becuase with games, you choose to murder/kill a person. Allthough that is the objective of most games out today. But they also have to think about the kind of backround a kid has. If he lives in the ghetto, then he will most likly shoot sombody, if he lives richly, and does somthing with his life, then they can be quite entertaining. I dont think that the d00d in sweeden is trying to say games are gonna be banned, i think there will be more user discretion...

Or they could go outside and fucking do something... When I was younger all I ever did was play football and basketball outside with people.

Why man, why? People should in fact get off their asses and do something. I would, but whats there to do in subzero temps and a foot of snow everywhere you look?

Well, they say that kids can easily tell the difference between reality and fantasy, but I have come upon some very idiotic kids that all they do is pretend fight... Most of those kids live in the U.S. and have super christian parents that were once druggies...

I don't think video games make people fat.The lack of exercise because they are too busy playing video games to exercise makes them fat.I used to get no exercise at all because of video games until I started playing Dance Dance Revolution.

On the bright side, if the ratio of fat and violent tendencies are directly proportional, they may only be in murderous rages when they're big enough to merit the attention of the Weekly World News and they can't move on their own...

Yeah penny_bags I had doen the same things. I mean, I played the occasionaly video game, mario, sonic, and whatnot, But I had a fucking bike. Instead of parents buying Video games, and family-sized ravioli for their child, they should buy a goddamn bike and a basketball. Its not the video game creators, or the People that produce the food that make them fat thats the problem, Its the fuckign parents. The goddamn adults don't have to buy their whiney ass little kid a new game every week, shit, I'd tell my kid to fuck off and go do something, I wouldn't let him/her waste his/her life on a retarted ass video game.
