One comment I saw was very interesting...

"Outside Fort Worth, Texas, friend Michael Ritrovato said Alexis had recently been frustrated with the civilian contractor about a payment issue. But Ritrovato said his friend never showed signs of aggressiveness or violence, though he played a lot of shooting video games online."

Every time there's a mass shooting, you can be rest assured that somehow, somewhere the perpetrator will be linked to shooting games of some kind, be it FPS or TPS or even platformers if possible...=.=


Wall Street Journal Blog - "Friend: Aaron Alexis Skilled at Shooter Videogames" - They editted the headline to "Friend Says Alexis Was Videogame Fan, Heavy Drinker"

I know another Gun Control wanking session was considered, because DC is famous for its lax laws, such that the soldiers stationed there were armed to the teeth.

I'm just waiting til people stop being so damn retarded and use scapegoats for them being pathetic losers and not solving the problems the way they're meant to be solved, not shoot things up and blame it on video games because of virtual guy did it too.

Video games are violent because we can't be. There are rules and laws to follow. We're not mindless animals anymore, so most of us "express" our violence in games, where no one is harmed and is only meant for our entertainment.

I'm not bad at FPS games, but that doesn't give me a reason to shoot my problems.

I blame oxygen. Kids these days are breathing too much of it.
