Who honestly in their right minds thinks that video games and Virtual Reality in any way shape and form prepare you for a real life shooting?
these simulators train the brain to think, react and plan strategic move etc.
Both those arguing that these games cause shooting sprees and those saying they are totally irrelevant are wrong. Of course spending all your time virtually shooting people is a form of conditioning.
So is watching the murder porn most television shows are. CNN is one of the most prevalent means of conditioning violence into the population, and, as is typical of propagandists, are blatantly projecting their own deceptions onto their victims.
100% I was explaining to a German yesterday how television and movies condition people to think that guns are plot devices and that every time they see one that it will be used at some point during the show for violence. That's how they create an irrational fear of guns to be able to get people to call to have their rights stripped from them.
