Violent video games and mass murder

April 19, 2007

Chris Rangel rips Dr. Phil:

The reality is that while some studies have found clear evidence for increased aggressive behavior and thoughts in subjects during and just after playing violent video games, there is no evidence that there are any lasting effects. There is no evidence that video games or other violent media (like movies) have such long-term significant effects on behavioral patterns that leads to an increased likelihood of criminally violent behavior in the future.
