So basically, he was a frustrated sociopath who had easy access to guns. Truly tragic, but not at all surprising.

Well, if he did not have "easy access to guns", this may not have happened.

and what begins? reality? common sense?

The people you quoted did not lie. if they did, you could've at least taken the time to actually counter their posts with what you see to be the truth.

And he had to bring video games into it as well. Nobody will ask how a 15 year old is given access to games designed for adults, they will blame games anyway.

I don't think that the girl could be charged, too young to know better.

People have been killing people long before video games. If anything video games relieve my urge to kill others in real life :p

Crazy people are maybe just attracted to violent games, so it could be the other way around.

Might be considered off topic, but I think it's relevant because this topic revolves around this kid playing violent video games...Francis shares his thoughts on video game violence, nsfw - language (also fair warning to turn down your volume it gets loud):



On topic... the parents should have had their guns locked up. One could make an argument that they are just as much to blame for this as the kid for not doing so.

His father was a pastor. I guess, the morality of the scripture didn't settle in his brain. And why would a pastor need an assault rifle in the first place? It kinda goes against the doctrine of forgiving your enemies (unless he was was pastor of a religion that advocated blood fued).

not true. we cannot blame on video game. I believe that they made guns long time ago like 1500's or 1600's A.D. Also it came from wild western in USA in about late 1880's where they had guns everywhere.

Its not like I can go to a super market and purchase an Assault Rifle.. This is exactly why we shouldnt ban guns. People still have access to them no matter where!. It wouldnt solve any of these killings of those using Assault Rifles.
