248. I'll accept those two things as facts -- but
Edited on Mon May-14-07 07:43 PM by Morgana LaFey
you've provided NO causal link. It could be that youth violence could have dropped even more had there been NO violent video games. It could be that the violence that did happen was much more directly linked to violent video games. It could be that pretty much the only violent youths are those also watching violent videos.

My husband belched and then it rained. Both entirely true facts. Causative? About as much as the linkage between your two facts.

Edit: Hahah. That's the one flas with the MY DU posts feature: you don't see what else has gone on. I'll have to make a point to look at that hereafter.
