What kills me is that people look to BANNING VIDEO GAMES INSTEAD OF GUNS!?! My god, it is so simple, ban the guns and murder rates plummet. When I lived in Singapore, a country where no civilian can have a firearm, there were like 2 murders are year out of 3 million people.
#10 your wrong! all it would do is create an even bigger black market. besides that what are you gonna do? be like hey guys guns are illeagle now so just come on down and hand them in so we can all live in peace!
In the US this violent game censorship garbage is just bad parents looking for a scapegoat. Germany is a hole other animal they do that kind of stuff cause they dont want to see a 4th riech.
#10 they tried to ban alcohol in the 1920's and all that did was make it more popular, if you tell someone they cant have something they are going to get it just because.
also Singapore has a low crime rate because of the punishment system.
#14, Didnt you just read what he said? "there were like 2 murders are year out of 3 million people."
You are wrong, do you really think that making guns illegal will make more people die because of them. Even if the black market gets bigger, atleast now they will get harder to get for people who isnt in to organized crime, and that will stop "normal" people from just getting a gun and shoot someone because they are angry.
How do you explain that countries that doesnt allow guns have less murders? I know that I wont make you change your mind, americans and their guns is like englishmen and their tea.
its because Germany wants a stronger Soccer(football) team and all the good players started playing violent games cuz they are fun and there team wasnt good enough to beat italy so yeah PLAN B
#10 that would be insanely retarded. That would allow the U.S. Government to do anything to the American Citizens and they can't fight back... the whole reason civilians can keep and bear arms in the constitution is so that they can rise up against a corrupt government. Ever heard of that little thing called the Civil War?
"The two states have drafted a bill that would subject developers, distributors and players of video games whose goal is to inflict "cruel violence on humans or human-looking characters" to a fine and a maximum of one year in jail." the goal of counter strike is to either plant or defuse a bomb or to rescue or prevent the rescue of hostages. boom.
#33 lincoln's administration was hardly corrupt.... an eventual of goal of banning slavery is obviously a horrible travesty, right? plus the civil war was a southern army versus the northern army, not a band of citizens. i think you're thinking of the "revolutionary war" here.
#33, Are you actually believing what you are saying? So the reason the government doesnt do what they want with the citizens is because of their guns? Very nice!

lol you imbecile, it's illegal to be gay in certain parts of your country. Before you spout off to foreigners about liberty bear in mind where you currently live. The fact abortion is even a debate or teaching creationism in schools pretty much shows where your country is at intellectually and as far as liberties go.
#10 Thats because Singapore is a police state, you guys have no rights! Gun ownership is a good thing because it keeps the government in check. Its bad enough that we have a police force. But as soon as they start taking our guns away you know damn well something bad is going to happen to the population. Stalin and Hitler loved gun control!
"ban the guns and murder rates plummet."
Guns don't kill people, people do.
#23 Exactly.
#38 One of the first things Hitler and Stalin did was outlaw gun ownership. What did Hitler do to Germany's Jewish population after he outlawed gun ownership? How many people did Stalin kill after he made gun ownership a crime in his own country? Millions!
Hey, maybe we should all give our guns away, so that criminals have them and law abiding citizens like myself don't!
Freedom > Security
Give me freedom or give me death! :)

Oh and how many people are provoked to kill someone after playing a violent video game for awhile? I don't think many at all.
also Singapore has a low crime rate because of the punishment system.
