Video games are often a controversial subject, particularly where children are concerned. Graphic depictions of sex and/or violence in popular games are often cited by conservative, anti-gun and anti-violence groups as contributing to children engaging in premarital sex or committing horrific acts of violence.
Violence
Columbine High School mass-murderers Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris were found to have been fans of violent video games such as Doom and Duke Nukem.[1]
However, gun violence has gone down since 1993, almost making it seem like games are making society less violent.[2]
