Game consoles with violent and hunting games will be unplugged.

They will still sell guns... for now.

Yep, that's going to fix it all right there.

They don't sell the scary looking ones, though.

For those of you dogging on WalMarks stance, look at how removing Confederate statues worked with lowering the crime rates!

Anyone who says playing a violent video game can desensitize a person is full of shite . It’s the inability to socialize that causes this crap . Introverted people who always feel persecuted and think there’s nothing for them and have no connection with others who are at the heart of this . This is not on the same level as terrorist or ideology nuts . This is more akin to suicidal thoughts but they lash out instead . The fact that they play video games 10 hours a day is because of zero emotional connection early on in life . The fact that most are white is first the percentage of white population in USA and second no structure in early building of their lives . Do A in-depth study and most all have absent parental households . To think that taking away legal gun owners rights will solve this is BS . Getting involved with children at a early age , be it inner city or rural , and have people feel good about themselves will go along way . But no matter how hard society tries some people are just psychopaths , thinks of mass murderers throughout history.

To pre-summarize this thread: “it’s preposterous to think that role playing violence leads to less inhibition about committing real violent acts, or even to wonder if that might be the case and be open-minded about the idea.”

Put another way: “I like Call of Duty, and I never want to kill people; therefore, there’s no chance that violent video games play any role in actual violence.”

Useless virtue signaling to people that don’t even play video games or shop at Walmart

I don't mind the kids that visit or house playing CoD type games, it teaches teamwork and strategy where as GTA always devolves into the kids sucker punching & shooting citizens, interacting with hookers & car jacking while always being on the run from the Cops. GTA is like north Baton Rouge, the game, it literally teaches kids how to be and act like a criminal.

My Wal-Mart took down the posters of plus sized women models. That should stop the rape of obese women.
