I'm not sure why people are melting down so hard from such a generic statement. To make the jump that they're going to ban all video games is kinda silly.

To jump to such strawman is also rather silly.

On topic though any blame/taxes or basically moves to say that video games cause or have any impact on school shootings is just pathetic, look at other countries which have games just as bad if not worse (curse you japan) than America and then see what number of school shootings those countries have had in 2018 so far.

It's just deflection away from the one thing that America has more of than anywhere else and is always a part of school shootings... I mean... I've not heard of anyone putting the box to GTA against someones temple and pulling the trigger.

I'm in no way trying to defend the stance of video games are the cause of school shootings or any other type of absurdity. There is no documented link.

I'm just not willing to take a leap to think that his office meeting with industry execs means much more than that.
