It trifling the parents that buy this stuff for kids and dont take the time to show them that what they see in these games are NOT real.

Let's revisit Columbine for a sec shall we?

How do you feel about people blaming Doom and games for the shooting?

or....since we are on the subject of media...what about the kid that killed his sister because of something he saw on wrestling?

pssst...what system by the way
I'll probably get it on the PS3.

Columbine? Well blaming Doom is dumb. It's a fictional game where you go around shooting snarling space beasts. Haha, I mean seriously. These kids were problems before the shootings. Where were the parents in all of this? I mean breaking into cars, stealing, the stuff they were doing on the internet, the threats, having someone buy all of these guns????? I'm sorry, but if I acted like that my parents would have some serious, serious concerns. I probably would have been shipped off to military school to be honest. I just have no clue how they did all of this stuff without their parents noticing. Hell, my folks knew about things I did before I even did them, haha.

As for the kid and the wrestling...that's just terrible and so tragic. I don't know what to think about that.

Wait mack...the devil is in the details...remember a big part of the whole Doom issue was that they created a mod that was a replica of the school and they used that to fantasize about what they eventually carried out....

Now you and I as rational beings know that it doesn't make sense but to think someone went thru all of that trouble for a mod....yeah...some questions has to be asked.

And that was another detail to the whole thing...the parents really didn't pay attention to all of the signs and I think a debate still came to question as to how they got thier hands on all of those weapons with out mom dad and gaurdians not knowing....

regardless...that tells you that somewhere out there is a big disconnect between what parents do to stay a prioirty in thier lives....that just goes to show you why there is such a big difference in how we were raised and how some of these kids in this age are (or are not) being raised by responsible parents.

Please let me know if this makes sense...it's one am and my eyes are blurry.
