Well, I am writing this because I can not stand to see a person who does not understand anything of games and never played any to say that games make people violent.
Now I will mention a few "threads":

1-They had not been the games that caused the "Global Warming".
2-They had not been the games that caused the various wars around the world.
3-They had not been the games have built weapons, missiles and related.
4-They had not been the games that caused the dreaded "crisis" where we are.
5-They had not been the games that caused the extinction or put endangered several species of animals.
6-They had not been the games that put "Hitler" a born killer.
7-They had not been the games that made human trafficking around the world.
8-They had not been the games went to bed with the woman's best friend.
9-They had not been the games that put one and the other depressed (people).

Who caused all this evil, those people, and not the games !!!!!!
This is only 10, but is only one example ... but I think we all know many more.
And. .., I've always been happy to play video games, and if there was misery, and there was, was because of the people!
Therefore, peace and love for all, and do not stop playing video games, and if it will "face rotten" to challenge us we will be here to defend video games! :)

PS: If I made a mistake in writing it will be normal because I'm Portuguese and not English, so I do not write or speak English to 100%!
