Yeah but you beat up all your girl friends, their friends, their friends
friends and their dogs.
Bad influence of rap iymc
The way I see it, the less negative influences promoted to status quo,
the better.
Giving the bad ones the bad press they deserve goes a long way in doing
that.

Actually I agree with Kayode, if you don't have a firm foothold in
reality, you won't need much stimuli to bring out the psychopath in you.
There are people who go with the flow and those who naturally oppose it,
people who are compulsive and people who are not, people who are easily
influenced by their peers, music, video games, evening news and movies
etc and people who are sane enough to differentiate between fantasy and
reality. Case in point, myself. I have been listening to "gangsta" rap
exclusively between the ages of 11-18 and I don't go around calling
women bitches and ho's or using profanity in every sentence, In fact, I
thought cussing (outside of repeating the lyrics) was common minded and
lame,
Like Kayode, I think it depends on the person. Any sane/normal person
should be able to differentiate between fantasy and reality, what he
should do in RL and what he should only do in a video game. The guy was
a loony to start with, the game didn't make him a loony. People would
blame anything they can to cover up their own short comings. A drowning
man will grab a twig in his attempt to stay afloat.

Nah Kayode I disagree...Video games does affect your psyche. And movies.
So they can make you do things you might not normally do.
Take for instance...NFS Underground. Drive that for a few hours and then
have to make a spin somewhere in your car......I guarantee you, you will
FEEL THE NEED FOR SPEED.
