Like a dog gnawing on a particularly tasty bone, the US government is once again trying to link violent videogames to violence in the real world. In a press conference following the release of the Make Our Children Healthy Again report conducted by the Make America Healthy Again commission—MAHA, of course—US secretary of health and human services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said the ongoing scourge of gun violence in the country could be the result of many factors, including videogames.
Kennedy said the "sudden onset of violence" began in the 1990s, which he apparently finds inexplicable because "we had lots of guns when we were kids" and this sort of thing never happened.
