So, you know, there was another school-shooting thing here. In this case, it would seem we have stepped into a 1990's timewarp, as all the old politician douchebag types who grew up in a golden pre-video-game age are now discussing the serious issue of video-games. Before a motive has even been established, much like the shooter, they found someone to blame for their misery, and took aim at the easiest possible target.

It is a fact, that Hitler forced Nazi's to play video-games, and it is the singular reason why they committed such violent acts. Every act of violence throughout history, in fact, is the retroactive result of video-games. Nevermind that millions upon millions of people, of all ages, genders, cultures and races (many of whom are mentally ill), enjoy violent video-games and movies on a regular basis, and yet never commit any act of real violence. In fact, violent video-games are such a normal part of everyone's modern life, that everything anyone ever does could be blamed on video-games... that is, if you're enough of a douchebag to do such a thing.

The real reason why these things happen... is obviously unknown to the various dickheads now blaming video-games. If they knew why these things happened, the things wouldn't happen. Instead of randomly destroying whatever you old motherfuckers didn't grow up with, maybe you should try to figure out the real causes, and that way, you can eliminate the actual effects.

I get that the whole shooting thing is real screwed up, but compounding the problem by targeting innocent video-game players (such as those of us here on esr), is only a solution in your warped fantasy world. In fact, it parallels the stupidity of invading Iraq after 9/11. One might think that America had learned from that mistake, but today, even the 'liberals' who so despised Bush and Republicans for said catastrophe, are prepared to do it all over again.
