Violent games in the hands of people like you and me are not dangerous in the least. On the other hand, it is stupid for parents to allow children with these types of mental issues, violent tendencies, and an inability to discern reality from fantasy to play such games as they would clearly affect such individuals in a different way. It is also ridiculously stupid for parents of such children to have guns available to these kids and not locked safely away. The problem here is not the video games or the guns, the problem is the individual, the lack of propor treatment, and a parent that allowed this individual to feed his violent side.

If a person cannot effectively separate fantasy from reality, they should not be playing games like this or use firearms. The fantasy world of the game can creep into their reality very easily in this case. I'm a firm believer that individuals with such issues as well as young children should not be playing violent games. This doesn't call for government action, it calls for parents to actually be parents.
