It does seem like an interesting study; I'd be interested in reading the published findings.

However, they still fail to recognize the same results are completely possible from violence in movies, TV, news and simple conversation.  It's my belief that violence is an unavoidable constituent of life.  By abolishing one aspect of violence, they accomplish nothing (in my opinion).  It will still arise in the lives of these insecure individuals; it is a direct inevitability.

I agree, I think money and time could be better spent.
One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.
