    Doesn’t work like that. The crazier people are, the better they get at shamming normal.

    I bet you're only saying that because you're really a zombie and just don't want to be shot!

    Zombies are so last year... My mrs is up with the play.. Stabby stabby unicorns that stab you in the bits


    Saying the whole zombie thing is for people that want to murder people is like saying those that join the armed forces want to shoot people and get paid for it

    Only if the people who join the armed forces sit around talking about literally shooting people, in which case, it is like that yes

    Is airsoft, paintball and lazer tag the fantasy of indiscriminately shooting/murdering people without consequence?

    Not now. They are 40 & 42.
    And they have both put aside childish things and are now responsible hunters. They don’t point firearms or play guns at anyone.

    If they did, I am not beyond booting their arse.

    Cowboys and Indians may have been played by children but it was deadly serious and it was only the PC brigade that killed it off to be replaced by Zombie Killers.
    Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.

    Our generation grew up playing such games Spook and if you were to use cancer as an analogy then I would think that what we did and how it influenced us, was largely benign. Today's younger generations that have been exposed to a far greater degree of gratuitous violence via movies and video games have, I think, become far more malignant in that regard as there is no denying that the level of violence in our society has increased immensely and quite disproportionately to the increase in our population. There is warning in what Tahr says as the line between fantasy and reality has become blurred for many by the normalisation of violence and the greater presence and availability of harmful substances.

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I dont think its games and zombies myself. Theres millions of people who are into zombie stuff/games they dont go on rampages

    Was talking to a teacher the other day and he said each year kids at our school are getting worse and worse as they know no one can really do anything about it and they are learning that from a younger age each year. Sending them out isn't a punishment. I'd get my self kicked out when I didnt feel like doing anything get sent to another class chill out and draw pictures. Now Im not saying bring back the caine but if I was getting a smack on the ass, just like an electric fence I aint gonna touch it again...

    Very interesting to hear from your perspective Toby.
