Remember when Coloumbine happened and politicians started blaming DOOM (a several year old game at that point) and Quake? Hell didn't they also try to blame the Matrix simply because the shooters were wearing trench coats? meanwhile the film came out like what? one or two weeks before the shootings?

Politicians just LOVE their scapegoats.

The single biggest factor for American military hegemony in Grenada was Pac-Man.

If its a stupid idea. RFK jr. has had it.

Funny, Hillary Clinton said the same thing.

Switzerland has a comparable number of guns as we do, and the last mass shooting they had was 23 years ago

so does he believe that Swiss people do not play video games, or what

Played adventure games and fighting games growing up. Never in my entire forty-something years have I even thrown a punch at anyone.

Japan LOVES video games, you don't see them being brought up for the reason they have sooo maaany murders. Oh wait...

(Now I play MMOs and I never cast a spell at anyone either, in case y'all wondering...)

Hey fuck you....I know video games didn't cause shit...it seems like I ate that part of his dumbass brain.

so the cheap access to assault weapons that NO ONE FUCKING NEEDS is not a factor? Also, the lack of mental health care? Yeah... right....

Binding of Isaac is why I torture children /s

I mean, typical boomer shit from an ignorant boomer. I'm not surprised at all.

God. Are we back on this loop again?!! Incidentally what is the most selling game currently?

A game about a bug with a needle? Super violent.

Well, if you take away video games we'll have to find entertainment somewhere

So it's a mass shooting now? Feels like a slap in the face to every other incident

Jfc, this again?

Yeah. When all y'all are talking about how we need government intervention and legislature to get you what you want?

THIS is why some of us are very wary of that and don't think "We are just idea people. Other people can make it a law" is at all a good idea.

I blame faulty condoms for RFK Jr

He outed himself as an ignorant fool.

Wolfenstein was pretty good, ngl

Is the shooter a person of color? Seriously, ask yourself that. Likely that is the citing factor for someone coming up with fucking bullshit like this. When the shooter is white, the defenders of gun rights will point to mental health. The point I am making is that POC will be a used as a scapegoat to upturn causes in society for their actions while a white person is largely upheld by gun rights advocates as a sign of failure to address mental health.

What did they tell him about how his father and uncle died?

Probably the truth, just like they told him the truth about vaccines.

Spoons made me fat!

His office leaked his plans to link video games to behavioral issues earlier this week, so he already had the press release ready, he just swapped some words around.

If I don't pass that ant zone on silksong I'm going to shoot something.

I guess RWS can add a 'Kennedy Mode' to Postal2 Redux. (in reference to the previous lowest difficulty, Liebermode, named after Senator Joe Lieberman.)
