Sad day in the States, but hey, let blame the games.

Sad day in the Virginia today, with some 32 people killed by one (or two) gunman. So while we morn the death of these people, some stupid lawyer by the name of Jack Thompson decided to use this opportunity to, you guessed it, blame the shooting on the video games. And he did it live on TV too!

Well done, Jack. All the shooting that has ever happened on the face of the Earth is because all these murderers played GTA, Doom, Resident Evil, Counter Strikes and whatnots. Don't blame Charlton Heston for keeping the guns on the streets. Don't blame the government for not tightening gun control. Because you know, they are real people, and real people don't do bad things. Only virtual little guy inside the TV screen teaches people how to kill.

Shame on you too, FOX NEWS, for even thought about getting Jack on TV in the first place. Not that I watch your channel, but thank God I don't.
