Town plans video game burning

[n_K]

Ah well, I've heard plastic fumes cause loads of health problems, and healthcare is expensive in america....

Anyway this assumes anyone in the area actually cares less.

Let's burn a few bible's and quran's whilst we're at it. After all, they're FULL of violence and hate and have incited countless murders and wars!

[Hum]

I don't believe Charles Manson played any video games..

I think Jack-the-Ripper did. :shifty:

If you want to cast blame, one could start with Hollywood. How many people did John Wayne, Robert Mitchum, Clint Eastwood, Al Pacino ...etc...etc kill in the movies? Thousands. I grew up watching westerns and War Movies. I never killed anyone. One also may cast blame on Roy Rogers, Cisco The Kid, The Lone Ranger. Look at the violence that exists on TV today? Back when I was growing up they showed people getting killed but not so graphically. So maybe these same nutters should start burning TV's.

^ Don't forget all the institutional racism & sexism in such old shows & movies, too!

... You get my point, right leaning Americans are Neanderthals at best.

I'm pretty sure American's didn't invent burning things/people....

[devBrian]

Oh why oh why do people always have to be so ignorant. Jesus!

You answered your own question.

You answered your own question.

LMAO. Yea I actually thought that some time after I made the post. So sadly I can't claim to have made that on purpose. ;)

Nothing like a Nazi-esque burning to make a statement. Ugh

[gameboy1977]

they are soooo idiot in state of CT! I was very smart that I knew that killing is wrong in the real life. I enjoy video game since I was 8 to 9 years old that I remember that I played atari before I start play nintendo at 12 years old. now I am 35 years old.

It is blamed on the person who has mental illness inside, not the video game, book, movies, and others!

Now I remember! I watched South Park the movie where american parents says they blamed on Canada for bad words. M.A.C means Mothers Against Canada.

One month ago, I research history about school shooting here in USA. It started in 1764's that they start shooting in school without video games. they had no power electric until late 1800's.

here is the link:

Blame everything but the ****ty parenting and the psycho who did it. Yep, that's America for you. But to have some Nazi-like book-burning **** show on top of it? Sometimes I hate being American.

[KingCracker]

Meh ill call it Nazi like when its sponsered by the state.

[Growled Member]

Some people don't seem to be happy unless they are hating something.

You know in another thread I actually said "You know somehow people are going to start blaming Violent Video Games" yet I was told -- No they are not....

Though the next probable step is Picketing Gun Stores and Gun Shows--

or though highly unlikely but there is the small possibility of people off the street randomly showing up to "protect schools" by way of Sitting and watching looking for a NUT Job to show up.

just saying.
