Ha ! 'Slackers', 'lazies', 'losers' ...

I was a massive consumer of video games and television for many many years. Most of them revolve around the worst kind of things possible. That is a fact. Sports do not involve killing, stealing, raping, materialism, greed, underage sex, glorification of drug use etc etc etc. Television and video games do. Are we going to defend that as an "art form" for young (very young) children to consume and become addicted to? I can assure you from ALOT of experience (all I wanted to do was play video games at one point in my life), that they DO effect both children and adults very strongly and subtley. This is certainly what the statistics and research suggest as well.
