California's Dianne Feinstein says killers can practice on video games
Senator Dianne Feinstein claims that video games can provide a training ground for murderers.
It's been a while since the "murder simulator" argument was brought up directly in the US, butGamespot reports (http://www.gamespot.com/news/violent-games-can-enable-would-be-mass-murderers-say-ca-senator-6406843) the California Senator revived it on Thursday's airing of MSNBC's Morning Joe.
"I think the really violent video game becomes a kind of simulator to practice on," said Feinstein.
"And it enables the individual to become much more familiar with that depiction of death and blood."
"Of course it's not the way it is in real life."
