| Topic | If video games killed 13,000 lives each year, would you support regulations? |
| darkknight109 05/29/22 9:38:09 PM #30: | I would support the same restrictions that are in place in countries that see low rates of video game related deaths. To continue the gun parallel, most countries that have access to guns but low deaths include licensing, registration, mandatory safety courses, waiting periods for purchases, and restrict or ban those types of guns that are most responsible for death and destruction. I'd be fine with those same restrictions for games. What a lot of the pro-gun crowd doesn't respect is that the issue isn't responsible gun owners owning guns; it's the fact that it's far, far, far too easy for irresponsible (or downright psychotic) people to get their hands on guns, thanks to almost a complete absence of any meaningful checks and balances. If my hobby was killing a lot of people... well, I'd be strongly tempted to get a new hobby, but if that wasn't an option for some reason, rational and well-thought-out restrictions would be fine. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer.
