New York Post writer suffers from head up ass syndrome

[BreakABone]

Silly little child, of course videogames are to be blamed. Remember no man is responsible for his own action, it would mean somehow society failed him.

I don't get how they can spread so much BS< they claim the game has sold over 5 million copies, which is true to my knowledge. So why are there only like a dozen or so crimes "related" to the game? Is it that the other 4 million, 9 hundred 99 thousand, 9 hundred and 88 people went unaffected by the game or something?

And that is just a sad statement, saying a game which is clearly make believe is far worse than a growing man having his way with kids or someone frauding the government? Isn't this a grand world we live in.

Other countries (Canada) have the same violent entertainment we do yet for some reason they don't have anywhere near the number of shooting deaths that we do.

That's because up here in Canada it is too hard to shoot people because of the constant snowing and blizzards.

That's not it at all.

We're just polite.

I think I'll subscribe to the blizzard theory. :snowman:

The answer is banning all guns, except for police and other law enforcement, obviously. My parents dont own one, and nobody in my not so distant family owns one either that I can think of.

My theory:

There are born sick people. They need inspiration to do their sick deeds. Movies, books, games, the news and stuff give them inspiration.
Are games to blame? No.

Although I sometimes feel that I don't WANT TO play a too violent game, cause I feel it messes with my brain.
Every time you play or see something violent, you're replacing your borderline. You'll want more every time, like any addiction.

Reading that reminded me of Bowling for Columbine. I loved it when he went to Canada and could just walk into anyones house, doors unlocked and everything.

But anywho. I'm leaving my opinion to myself. I could stir up a little too much for this thread. *walks out*

Not even going to bother reading it.

If you really think that is what Canada is like, then you are thoroughly mistaken.


Why, you ask?


Because igloos don't have locks, stupid.









Naw, but seriously... Everybody I know locks their doors... It is just common sense.

I know a ton of people who leave their door wide open during summer. Sometimes it can get hot without AC.
