Sure, you say you're not affected... but if you deny the effect it has on thousands of people less intellectually gifted than yourselves, then you're lying to yourself.
Really? How do you define lying to yourself then? Would you say someone who persists on repeating the myth that violent games contribute to violent behavior, despite all evidence to the contrary, is lying (in a broader sense, but also to themselves)?I would say that anybody who maintains that Rape being down by a factor 5, Robbery by a factor 3, Aggravated Assault also by a factor 3, Simple Assault by a factor 2 and violent crime (in the US) being at an unprecedented historical low (that is not once, in the combined history of the US, has there been less violence than now), is somehow a sign that the world is going to hell in a hand basket, and violent video games and/or media is somehow to blame is at best delusional and at worst batshit insane!
BTW, here is the link to the facts, as posted in Paul's wonderful chart above. Google it for more than 5 seconds, and you'll find the numbers similar for all countries were violent video games are available.
