        Are these games violent? That is the question everybody has to ask! If they are violent they are somehow influencing this kind of behavior in young kids, can’t you see???? It becomes a vice and all vices are wrong!!!! Wake up America!!!!!

        I hope so! If you had a kid playing the real football watching him beating and being beaten for sports sake you would think differently

        So let me get your logic. It's better to physically harm someone by playing football than playing a video game of football. Every human being thinks differently.

        Not to mention the repeated head trauma that we now know leads to severe mental health issues.

        everytime suspect is caught, the reason is always "mental illness" that is the fastest way out in court.

        facts. 1) the shooter went to kill, because in that place hardly anyone would be armed. 2) people kill and this is independent of weapons. 3) Gun control only eliminates the possibility of good people defending themselves. 4) more guns more safety, always.

        Guy Its a tournament for a videogame. If anything security should actually do their job and check bags.

        I've been too a couple of gaming tournaments and yeah security is pretty much non existent. They don't check anything

        so Jay, the problem is not in people having guns. you live in the United States, where people can have guns, and in your country there are 17,000 homicides a year. I live in Brazil, where almost nobody has guns, and we have 64,000 homicides in the year.

        Another mental health issue/excuse. Call it like it is. A cowardly killer who could not have his way.

        Why when a Muslim committed a crime we call a terrorist and why when the perpetrator of the crime are not Muslims say it is mentally unstable Does this crime differ from that only the religion of the offender

      3. That's Right‏ @GrantCMichaels Aug 27
        Replying to @Ahmad34870018 @cnnbrk

        Because the right likes to have people sympathize with white shooters by calling them mentally ill or abused but if its a POC they use it to fear monger that anyone of color is a terrorist attacking the whites. Its transparent but yet people eat it up
