32. I'm a millenial that grew up on games like GTA

I don't have a record with violence despite the games and am now in my late 30s though I prefer to play games like College Football but I will probably purchase the new GTA game if it ever comes out.

As far as guns I would amend the 2nd Amendment or it seems like a lot of Constitutional amendments have a lot of exceptions to them and so should the 2nd Amendment.

Japan's video games are much more violent but they have a much lower rate of gun violence. It was often the religious right that blamed video games for crime.
