Even as a Conservative - O'Reilly just pisses me off.

Here's a link to one of his recent rants.

I apologize not being able to give you a nice, convenient little flash quicktime player to click and listen at your leisure. Sorry, but i'm working on it.

On to the subject! Bill O'Reilly, and his debbie-downer attitude, decided to toss some cold water on the gamer population during his "no-spin zone" section of his show. Claiming that the PS3 is responsible for the killing and the social deviancy that has been popping up in the public.

He blames video games for violence. What. A. Tard.

Despite the contant proof that a simulated video epxerience has never initiated a certain type of negative reaction out of anyone people still like to cling on to the usual scapegoats people can blame for their own failings. Instead of PARENTS actually taking an active participating role in the kids lives and connecting with them they have become self-centered and left them in the hands of strangers to bring up their young.

Most, if not all, of the parents whos children have gone and committed atrocious acts seem to act surprised that they had a murderer living under their very same roof. Why? because they don't know who their children are anymore. They, for the most part, don't care what their children feel or experience and most refuse to offer any type of counsel or assistance in dealing with the rougher parts of life that many of these children face.

Parents blame Video games because it's an easy target for them. Why? because it's why they traded their parenting time for. They plop their kids down in front of the tube, the PC or the Playstation so they don't have to deal with the problems of their kids. Video games aren't bad but they aren't suitable baby sitters either. Perhaps if the parents would connect with their kids and try to understand the new generations these solidary lifestyles that each parent and child lives could be brought together to create a newer form of family.

Just my opinion.
