    I'm not saying they do or they don't, nor am I saying they're healthy or unhealthy.

No, you're saying that nobody should draw conclusions from conclusive evidence because "media influence."

You're not adding to the conversation here. I know you don't like conflict but you're arguing here that just because one study on the impact of video games was withdrawn so hard that one of the researchers lost her Ph. D, we should all stare at our navels and realize that maybe they're violent after all because feelings.

"We as individuals" shouldn't disregard empirical evidence just because it doesn't sit right with our tummies. We sure as shit shouldn't argue that everyone else should, too.
