Same thing with this incident. If everyone who had ever been dumped went on a killing spree, there'd be one every day.

If you've been dumped and can't handle it, talk to someone. Have yourself committed. Do something. But there is no excuse for murdering innocent people.

Nothing you said sounded harsh IMO. Your 100% right. I know people, including myself, who have been picked on their entire life...I don't see any of us going around shooting people. There is no excuse at all for this.

And personal responsibility takes a dive.

Not saying that it makes him any less responsible, but if someone already has a twisted mind, the video games don't help at all. Have you ever seen some of them like Counter Strike?
