they dont, normally. I think most of the people that were "desensitised to violence by games" were probably already slightly psychotic and the fact that they play violent games is a coincidence or because of their violent tendancys. (im not expert mind and am just speculating).
Because a lot of people are stupid and believe whatever the press tells them instead of doing their own research. I have been playing computer/Video Games for 30 years and I've never committed a violent act in my life.
ow observing and experiencing violence can cause a person to become apathetic
Because sometimes people copy what they see.
violence is caused by emotions and a huge lack of self control. violence is a form of entertaiment (for everyone, no one has the courage or self confidency to admit their sick joy when they watch it or cause it). violence is stupidity impulse that people use to show their in control
Anything can cause violence..... even on Disney Chanel......
colonisation can cause violence because of people trying to resist the colonial rule and also structural ,global poverty and inequality
No. It is not "cool" to be a terrorist. Terrorism is nothing more sadistic violence perpetrated on the innocent.Most people who become terrorists do so because they believe that they are fighting for some valiant cause and that the only way to achieve their goal is through wanton violence and destruction. They are idealists in a very sick way, not people trying to be cool.
yes.
no, just think about how much pot hippys smoke and how peaceful they are.
some of the public thought that the violence they used was justified for their cause but some people thought that the violence was the wrong way to go to get what they wanted.
The exact same things cause all violence. The object used to commit the violent act is immaterial. Violence is caused by people who refuse to obey the rules of society. Why they refuse can be biological, sociological or chemical or anything a lawer can think of.
yes it does!
No. However, violent video games where a child, or an adult for that matter, spends a good deal of time shooting or destroying others, seeing violent deaths and injuries, may become desensitized to violence which can create apathy - lack of caring - about real life people and their pain. They might spend so much time seeing violence on the screen that if they see violence in real life, they might not care or think much of it and that can be dangerous. Or they might think the gun they pick up for real is just like the one they play on the game and not really understand or relate fully to the fact that they could or do hurt someone with it for real. This isn't to say every child who plays violent games is vulnerable to this, but it really depends on the child's personality and how much time they spend on such games. And not all video games are violent.
