Video Game Violence

Still thinking about Shooting War and the way that the violence was depicted as a video game firdt person shooter and two weeks later this still bothers me. I will be the first to defend the video game violence because well its not real. I play a wide variety of games, mainlt shooters and even if the military is using these for training it can only go so far. I have no issue running out onto to a virtual battlefield and taking a few shots in order to gain better position on the enemy. But lets face facts that's not going to happen in real life. You get shot in real life you are not getting back up. I have family that was in the military and law enforcement. Most of these people who have been in combat situations cannot even watch others play these games now. My cousin was involved in a fire fight in the NYPD and she struck in the neck and killed. Tell me the a video game or simulation prepares you for that. That was an overwhelming scene for me because this is not a game and I thought that was a very upsetting image. Try aiming a gun with a grenade going off ten yards away from you, you're not getting that training from a video game.
