Look, you're dead wrong on this one. Video games are the perfect training simulator for violence - you're literally rewarded for headshots, executing enemies, and causing maximum carnage. When kids spend thousands of hours practicing these mechanics, muscle memory kicks in. Think about it logically: we use simulators to train pilots, soldiers, surgeons. Why? Because repetitive practice creates real skills. But somehow gaming is magically different? That's ridiculous. The industry knows this too - that's why military recruiters set up booths at gaming conventions. They're not there for the snacks, dude. They recognize that gamers already have the hand-eye coordination and desensitization needed for combat. And before you bring up correlation versus causation, explain why every single mass shooter in the last decade was deep into violent games. That's not coincidence, that's pattern recognition.
