BREAKING: Shooting at Conn. Elementary School

But I don't agree with any media outlet that attempts to legitimize sensationalism of an assumption. I don’t buy the whole video game violence explanation either.

Here's my opinion on video games, particularly violent ones:

If you're mentally stable, violent video games are not going to 'turn' you to violence necessarily.

If you're mentally UNstable, I think hours and hours, weeks and weeks and months and months of playing them could desensitize you to the point where the line between fantasy and reality becomes blurred.

Throw in a few traumatic events like parents divorcing, being kicked out of school and considered a social outcast, and the recipe is there for disaster.

All that's missing are the actual weapons and ammunition.
