Since violent deaths per 1000 have been falling exponentially and very
dramatically for hundreds of years, it would take a hell of a lot to change that. Even the first and second world wars did not have a significant impact on the downward trend of violent deaths. I doubt any video game, film or book could have more of an effect. Video games are nothing in the bigger picture of violence in civilization. There are far greater forces at work, although it isn't so clear to anthropologists what those forces are. ed and OT: can anyone in the know explain why the homicide rate in America briefly shot up between 1915 and 1920? Lynching? Mafia?
