"Martin and I were playing video games and now I have cyber-guilt." "A lot of the games involve stealing cars and junk like that. I know folks'll argue that it offers some sort of release." "But at what point does it go beyond that and end up putting your psyche in a place it shouldn't be?" "Let go of my Rascal!!" WHAP!! WHAP!! "It's mine!" WRRR
It’s one thing if video games are only a single element in a well-rounded life in the community. However, if violence and crime are your only interactions, the lines of acceptable behavior get blurred. Same with anonymous online contacts. Things quickly drift to the lowest common denominator (like in the days of the Nazis). :) :(
