1) Television has nothing to do with TRAINING for the act of murder, like FPS videogames do.

2) Neither me nor Grossman are for gun control. Where do you take that from?

How do you know? Can you cite any data that shows television and movie violence have no effect on whether someone commits acts of violence or how effective they are at it?

I didn't say you were. I was using Sharpton as an example of your mindset and the intellectual bankruptcy of your position.

Seriously, if we banned FPS games and Chicago still had 2,400 shootings a year, what would you want to do to solve the problem?
