When you ask how I feel about killing animals/humans in video games, are you talking about animated animals/humans, or real ones? I am sure you have read about the computer games where you pull the trigger online and a real animal is shot to death. I am of course disgusted by those, and it is reassuring that some states are making this illegal.

I think video games in general are a horrible idea. My daughter was not allowed to play them growing up. I think some children who play them get a very distorted idea about the value of life, and become more violent in general. As with anything else, some better integrated children seem to have no lasting problems, and they can improve hand eye dexterity. But I also think video games and computers as well as television are very inactive ways to spend time, and are making our children less fit and much fatter as well.
