The Game Made Me Do It!!!!

Example

The desire to shift responsibility from the criminal to society has finally gone too far.

KOMO 1000 reports:

House Bill 2178 proposes to hold the makers and sellers of violent video games liable if someone under 17 years old commits a crime, due in any part, to playing the game.

The article goes on to state:

"If you sit up and watch this and play these games over and over again... it seems that this is alright to walk up and hit a police officer over the head with a bat," Hanson said.

What message are we sending to our youth when we allow them off the hook by blaming the video games for their actions? This goes right along with blaming fast food companies for people getting fat from eating their food.

I wonder when we as a society will get tired of passing the buck.
