In-class writing 7

Glen Beck makes his case that video games are harming our society.  He states that the Grand Theft Auto video game allows players to do vulgar acts.  He then makes reference to the fact that it is not natural human instinct to kill; saying that in WW1 soldiers would not naturally shoot opposing forces.

He says that the video games of today do the same thing as combat simulators of the early twentieth century.  He makes it known that he is staunchly against the juvenile use of such games.

I see Glen Beck’s point of view when he is talking about the violence of new video games.  Some video games go over the top with the amount of inappropriate and violent acts.  They do not positively benefit children’s development.  However I believe that the way Beck delivers his information seems a bit extreme although his intentions are good.
