Schwegman In Class Writing #7

In this video by Glenn Beck, he explains the history of violence through visual stimulation. Beck explains how humans are conditioned not to kill naturally: we are programmed to kill and be prone to violence through advanced video games. The Pentagon created the first "video game" to get soldiers adapted to  killing enemies during WWI. Ever since that creation, killings during war time have increased dramatically. 

Beck argues that our violent tendencies are the results of pop culture's influence on us. He believes that the increasing violence shown in the media are training people to be murders. He also argues that the sex shown in these video games are changing the way we treat the opposite sex. 

This video with Glenn Beck is very informative on video game violence, but the argument Beck creates is very bias. Beck only shows the side of video games that are bad and creating murders. We all know there are two sides to every arguments and Beck failed to reinforce his argument with opposing views. I also believe that he makes a valid point that video games are being too violent, but blaming them on every murder that occurs is going too far. I believe that video games should be censored and be less violent because they are increasing violence in those who do not realize that it should not be taken as reality.
