Video games? Really? They're the cause of all these mass shootings? Not the AK-47s, AR-15s, or other weapons of war that are often used to rain down bullets on people?
Pulling video games in an apparent overreaction does not explain why mass shootings are uniquely American. --- When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don't adjust the goals, adjust the action steps. - Confucius ... Copied to Clipboard!

Thats more guns than people, so that doesnt really prove anything.its an impossible statistic to get, but lets assume 1 person killing one person so 11000 (this also includes justifiable shootings of which its already skewed). theres an estimated 100million gun owners in the US so that means yeah about 99.99% dont kill anyone with their guns. now if you want to say those who shoot others regardless of killing or not (be it themselves accidentally or otherwise) then youre looking at 100k incidents which is 99.9%. and these are the worst case scenarios, the actual percentages are going to be much higher since a lot of the time multiple people tend to get shot by one person with one gun. ...

Has anyone ever bought games from wal mart the last time I was in a wal mart they had all the games locked behind a glass case and you had to find the right sales associate to open the case and get your game. But it couldn't be just any associate it had to be the one with the key that opened the game case. It was a real hassle. I bought my copy of Dragon Quest VIII 3DS there not too long ago. But it was an on-the-whim purchase; usually, I avoid Walmart as much as possible. --- Be wary of boarding the hype train, lest you end up on the ruse cruise... - nanobuilder (r/nintendo) http://backloggery.com/SolarCrimson ...

you still sell guns which are an actual legit leading cause of mass shootings got a source? otherwise you are just talking out of your ass. Guns are inanimate objects. I have yet to see a gun get up and start shooting people. I've had my current gun for 7 years now. It's never told me that it wants to go shoot up a store or anyting else. I'm trained to use it. I hope i never have to fire it at a living breathing individual. I play violent video games, that have never made me wanna go shoot up a walmart. video games, and the availability of guns have no commonality with mass shootings. --- PSN EddieLMT Currently Playing; EVE: Online ; God of War ; Marvel's Spider-Man ...
