Grossman Shot Down
by Steve Gibson, Dec 10, 1999 1:40pm PSTLooks like MSNBC has put the nail in the coffin on this Col. Grossman guy and his ant-video games campaign. Check out this article and you'll get a chuckle out of what readers here have been saying all along. The MSNBC guys are of course referring to stuff like this video which debunks a major point in our favorite Pokemon activist's arguments. Yeah, it's a tired subject but I figure it's good for one last laugh. Thanks VE for the link and the cool headline. :)
... a new book describing the dangers of video games by Lieutenant Colonel David Grossman, a former Army Ranger who taught classes at West Point, is the intellectual equivalent of the computer game Doom. Grossman spends most of the book running around wildly shooting accusations at video games and the companies that make them, never stopping to examine the full ramifications of what he is saying and completely ignoring the facts when they get in his way.

Come join the army with me. I like fresh recruits. I like to tell them what to do *cough*blowjob*cough*. You are all excellent shots! Aim for the red bullseye right in the center of my ass.
Lt. Grossman
ie. Do voilent games cause people to be violent?
or do violent people like violent games?
Hey wait a minute...I don\'t think I\'m helping our case....What I meant to say was:
I will make Grossman my bitch!
