This kind of stuff really makes me mad. Okay, I never went out shooting people aftar playing Space Invaders or Defender. I never tried to impale a friend after playing Joust, and I never tried to jump off a roof after watching Superman. I never became a satanist after listening to heavy metal music and I never lit the house on fire after listening to punk rock. And why not? Because my mom would have smacked the shit out of me! And you know what? I was scared to death of my father's belt. They only ever had to punish me a few times in my life, they never really hit that hard, and I was not an abused child. But if I did something wrong I new it and I took the punishment.
Okay, so where did the kids get guns in the first place??? Even on the very slim, grasping-at-straws defence that they were playing this game, got all riled up and went on this uncontrolled rampage, where did they get access to guns in which to do it? Either the parents were negligent for having guns laying around or these innocent teens who were just bored and not meaning to hurt anyone planned out a way to get guns so they could go out and shoot people. Hmmm, sounds pretty pre-meditated to me. Grrr.
It's just like those kids in the 90's who robbed a 7-11 and tried to say that it was because of Marylin Manson's song "Sweet Dreams". You know, I don't recall anyone knockin' off a convenience store when Annie Lennox did the song back in the 80's! What is this world coming too.
Okay, my point of all this. Do you see people going out and committing violent crimes because of porn websites??? No. So why are they picking on us rather than the real threat?
Okay, I'm done. Thanks for letting me rant.
