Obviously, we should be against video games, but not for any "safety" reasons. It's for the same reason the internet should be banned: they create sloth and detract from one's path towards righteousness and productivity, our two great callings.

As if. Media in general serves as a distraction from the important things in life.
Yes it is. But if it's not electronic media and entertainment, it'll be something else people choose to distract themselves from God with.
A very good point. We'd likely find stoned teenager drawing lines in the sand haphazardly if we took all else away from them. I suppose that's the greatest reason to live and let live at this point.
