TweetMan, I disagree. A reasonable person can tell the diff between good and bad and will not perpetrate violence on others regardless. The problem is some people are anti social and hate people. The media shows the face of these people and call them a monster and such. That is what they feel like. 10s of millions of people play violent video games watch violent movies, watch stuff like UFC that is real violence. Studies have shown people who watch UFC are LESS likely to be in a violent crime.

We are all desensitized to death and violence. Media and social media are far worse than vid games ect. In the 80s they tried to blame music for violence. Did not pan out. Just no correlation. Just because a person played a violent vid game does not mean that is what caused it. Look at his home life...kid never had a chance. His mother is as much to blame as he is.

BTW I play violent vid games, train fighting, have trained with guns and never have I ever thought about shooting up a school or another person. Hell I have not been in a fistfight outside the ring since highschool. Same with my son.

We have a lack of morals problem in this country. We are self centered and soft as a whole.

you forgot that you also use test alson and havent lost your shit and went crazy.

i like you blame the media parents social media and society as a whole. when we were in school it was postal employees that did these sorts of things and it was rare. think about this and my wife and i were talking about it the other day. we had more access to guns when we were growing up and it was more accepted. their where no police at schools and hell most of us once we had hunting permits would take rifels and shotguns in our trucks to school so we could go hunting after school.

here is how issues went down in those days. two people had a problem they took it to the bathroom hall or where ever and it was fists. no guns no knives no gang beatings. if you lost then that was it and you went about your business. now someone gets bullied or pissed off they shoot up the school or individual that pissed them off. or they knife them like at that one party. the access hasnt changed its people in general that have. we need to hold people and parents to account or this will never stop
