Does CLUE Equal Crime?

Recently in the news there was a report that violent crime is up across the country. One guy said it was because of the generation that grew up on violent video games. I do not know if this is true but just because I did not grow up playing violent video games does not mean these games did not exist.

For instance, my favorite game to play growing up was called CLUE. Today it would be considered a violent game but then it was a 'mystery game'....ooooooohhhhh. But it definitely contained violence. You had to try to 'solve the mystery'of who killed somebody in what room with what device. For instance, it could be Col. Mustard used a rope in the billiard room or Mrs. White used a candlestick in the ballroom or perhaps it was the beautiful Miss Scarlet who used a knife in the conservatory.

This was my favorite game and we played it often in our house. As far as I know, I have not killed anyone. Now excuse me while I go clean up the blood in the library.
