"get him away from the video games"

Was the police's suggestion to the father last year when the kid threatened to do this. I don't even know what decade I live in anymore.

Yeah, that's some next level copium. I grew up during Columbine and it was like DOOM made these kids do this. Anecdotal evidence but I've played every DOOM game since the 90's and I've never had an inkling to do a mass shooting. Our society is failing these kids in a way we don't want to actually own up to cuz the finger gets pointed squarely at us.

This is the fault of republicans and their insane, murderous legislation.

Honestly the fact we have enough of these to be able to make distinctions is even more depressing.
