Now, while I do think that Video games can have an impact of the level of violent crime in society, I can't help thinking the NRA has missed the point. People can become as violent as they want, but if they don't have ready access to assault weapons (or guns in general), it's a little more difficult for them to run amok killing innocent civillians.

It's a lot easier to stand there and shoot several people than it is to run around and knife them.
No the NRA have understood everything very well. Yet again we're not talking about gun control but the NRA. Just like when they called for teachers to be armed in schools and everyone spent a week discussing that instead of what gun control would like like. We've now spent the last week discussing games and the NRA again.

The NRA are brilliant at what they do. They've very smart, very capable and very effective.
