    Really great to see this type of thing going on,, although the controlled media would rather boast young kids playing video games where they kill so called bad people eh.

    Yes - most mass shooting in last decade are almost identical to action seen in Video Games
    I am stating this with a son making huge income from being a developer
    So I personally think Video games and developers are more responsible for failure in society for idiots that go off the rails with weapons on man kind - than registered FAL holders or specific weapon actions

    Id have to disagree with this. Ive played violent videogames for 25+ years and ive never thought about emulating that sort if behaviour. I think some people are born with the wrong wiring. Blaming video games or movies or other outside influences is pretty much the same as ssying guns kill people.

    Now dont get me wrong, im sure that in a few instances some people with the wrong wiring will have seen a film or played a game that influenced a decision to harm others but its not fair as a blanket statement.

    That's like me (and prob 100% other on here)
    I have used "potentially" violent weapons for near on 60 years and never thought about emulating mass shooting behavior
