I never understood the connection between video game stimulation and the urge to take human lives, but that's just me. If there is scientific data to support the aforementioned accusation, who are we to say that that is wrong?

In my honest opinion, too much of anything can lead to a sense of delusion in which murder becomes a reality of that delusion. If you surround yourself with murder and mystery novels to a point where you begin to convince yourself that you too are a detective or murderer, I feel that that is an unhealthy obsession that causes delusional behavior.

Moderating video game time is fine. If you play GTA all the time, 24/7, of course you're not going to feel as bad when you run some old woman over with your car, take her money and speed away with a car you just usurped from some unlucky passerby.
