Fuck that. Every one wants to point fingers and blame everyone else for thier own stupid actions. People
suing McDonalds for making them fat is a great example. These are people that understand perfectly well what they are doing. Quite frankly with the columbine shootings it was bound to happen to white middle class america eventualy. And for the love of GOD they made such a big deal out of it, the same shit happens every day in large cities, the only difference was that these kids diddn't know how to react to it, the city didn't know how to react to it. The church blames marlyn manson because they want to put the blame on someone else other then the children they raised to throw up thier noses to those that didn't "fit in". On that subject i may as well add that when people treat you like shit to the extent that you no longer see yourself as human you no longer see others as human. You no longer care, the only thing you feel is hatred and rage. I've been there, anyone can be pushed to that brink, and those that choose not to follow the flock seem to be pushed aside. (Gee, isn't that what happened to jesus, but they slaughtered him rather then have the hatred thrown back, this is no reason for those to say that is how one should react to bad treatment, I'm saying this has been going on in history for thousands of years). These kids didn't do if because of video games, or Maryln Manson. No one kills because they want to be cool and distroy people matrix style, they kill because they want to and point fingers later. Video games aren't capable of brain washing someone, even if they have a "weak mind". Charles Manson didn't pull it out of his ass, he used logic (if you can call it that, i guess things make more sense in code if your on acid) that those who spoke with him
already related to, things they already wanted. If those that decide to go out and kill after video game session or watching a horror movie, it's because they already had the plan to do so. You don't see it and say gee there's a good idea, i think i'll go out and snuff someone.
