In addition to filing lawsuits , Thompson has pushed for measures against similar games in a variety of public settings . He wrote a joint article in the '' Christian Science Monitor '' with Eugene F. Provenzo , a University of Miami professor who studies the effects of video games on children . Originally brought together to provide opposing viewpoints on '' 60 Minutes '' in the aftermath of the Columbine High School massacre , they said they had become friends and were collaborating on a book . They described themselves as having " a shared belief that first-person shooter video games are bad for our children , teaching them to act aggressively and providing them with efficient killing skills and romanticized and trivialized scenarios for killing in the real world "
