"It has also led to calls for tighter rules on violent computer games" I love how they just throw that line in there.....The media needs something to blame for this tragedy....can't they understand that some humans are fucked up?????? |

Can't people see that psychopaths play violent videogames, but no everyone who plays videogames is a psychopath? Suppose an opera fan stabbed someone after seeing Julius Ceaser, would the government ban opera? No- because it has nothing to do with opera, simply that a fan of that artform used it as an inspiration for a killing that he would have done anyway. |

yep that argument has been played and replayed -- but if they don't wanna hear it, then they'll just ignore it or attempt to belittle it or the people propositioning it |

I hate opera, I think if a stabbing ever occurs, Julis Ceaser should be cited as an influence and all opera should be banned. That'd be well good. |

there is probably a high correlation that psychopaths play violent video games... but violent videogames obviously doesn't cause someone to be a psychopath... people who are violent, would obviously enjoy a violent video game... I think most people loose sight of that... there is a big difference between correlation, and causation... |

i kno. i've played many violent games and i'm a goody two shoes. blaming violence on media & games, come to think of it, is just about one of the dumbest things i've heard. they need to consider lifestyle factors, backround, psychology, etc.........imo |

they also found a lot of Slipknot cd's at his place, so there ya go. |

It's like that band that were sued for having "do it" backwards in one of their songs being blamed for the suicude of a teenager. They should have considered the fact that anyone who listens to the same track 100+ times a week is a bit unhinged. Anyone who likes slipknot is obviously mentally ill. |
