pickStunning study of how the misconception of there being no link between #violence and video #games became so widespread. Proven links between #gaming violence and pre-teens had been established, and has resulted in both suicides and mass murders. The games carry an 18 and older warning, but this has no more effect of keeping them out of below 18 year old hands than gun laws have with criminals. #Parenting #psychology #science #Profit 💰#Greed
