I'm a grown-up man and I've never played a violent game and I still look away from violent scenes in movies and tv. I've been exposed to some very violent imagery by accident in movies and I didn't like it and I didn't want to see it ever again. Is it genetic ? Is it because I was raised a Christian and only allowed to watch tv after the age of 8 ? I'm atheist now, but maybe my Christian upbringing was a factor. Or maybe my parents were Christians because they genetically don't like violence. None of my friends like violence either. They're all really nice people with kind loving hearts.

And it's not like I was born seething with violent imagery in my growing mind and had to be taught it was bad and not to be violent. I never had any bad thoughts about other kids. I did bad things like lying and stealing but never violence.

Just saying, there are many people who don't think violent thoughts, don't want to do anything nasty, who are nice people who don't need laws to stop them from doing things.
