Woot Woot Issue's Paper!

Okay, so can I just say how excited I am for this issues paper?!  Yes, I know that it's got to be almost 10 pages but I guess the reason is because I am excited for my topic.  I was really confused on what to write my topic on until Chris brought up Zombies.  Now Connor has dibs on the whole "zombie apocalypse"  thing but I also wanted to focus on Zombies... kinda. haha What my topic will be on is How Violent Video Games affect Aggression in Human Beings.  The reason this ties into zombies is because I am a fan of Call of Duty and I'm amazing at Nazi Zombies (yes, I am very proud of that fact).  I recently went to a seminar by a guy who talked about this so I have many stats and new studies on it.  I'm going to be talking a lot on how it causes violence in men, and why not women.  I'll also be talking about what else happens when people play violent video games compared to non-violent ones.  I also have many personal stories.  Basically, I am very excited to write about this. Finally, I can prove to my brother that being addicted to video games is not a good thing.  Let me know what you think!
