Yes, It has been shown that 90% of American prisoners have both antisocial disorder and are video game addicts.


I'm pretty sure an equal number of them lift weights, does that mean that lifting weights makes you violent as well?

yes, especially when you do roids.

No, after they quit the balls shrink and they are like castrated puppies, even tempered, they quit gaming altogether and violence ends.

If you know as much about correlation bewteen videogames and violence as you do about steroid use (and abuse) and training, I think I'll take your initial statement with a grain of salt.

Funny someone didn't realize by now that none of my statements were serious.

Funny how there is not intonation in text so sarcasm is better off being a bit more direct at times...

If it was a joke, I appologize.

Well if you know what antisocial personality disorder actually is than it would be plainly obvious that I was making a rediculous statement.  I wrote it for the few people who actually know what the disorder is, so I am sure they would know I was showing that causality or even a large correlation between violence and videogame playing is unlikely.

Never meant to cause confussion.

Yes. No real argument to sustain my point though, I just think it does for most.
