| irstupid said: I so hate reading all the "just another day in America, another mass shooting" Anytime I read that I say get off your fucking high horse whoever you are. The same can be said about anywhere else and some other act of violence. Feels like ever few weeks I hear about some vehicle driving into multiple people from some terrorist in Europe somewhere. There are plenty of statistics done showing that having guns can decrease gun violence. There are also places like Chicago that have INSANE gun laws and they are one of the highest gun violence places in the world. Oh, you say they get their gun elsewhere, huh? Well to that I say they are all fucking gang members and would get their guns just as easily if the entire US was illegal for guns. They don't fucking drive to another state to buy guns. Someone comes in and sells them, because there is profit to be made. That would not change if guns became illegal. It would just make it more lucrative cause they would charge more due to more risk/work bringing them in. Some of the richest people in the US became so due to alcohol becoming illegal and they making a killing selling it. Don't pretend that wherever you are is so holy because guns are banned. There are shit people everywhere. As for the situation here, I'm surprised this si really the first time this has happened at a gaming event. I've seen enough videos of gamers freaking out insanely, breaking shit, ect that one would think that if in those situations there was people around and they weren't streaming alone in their room they might take that frustration out on someone. Am I blaming games? No, games are just the medium in those cases. Same thing is visible when a persons sports team loses or anything other passion of someones loss. There is a thing called Crime of Passion. |
Yep. And its especially annoying because unlike many other countries, USA is completely transparent and in the global language of English. USA has its own problems with gun related deaths sure, but other countries certainly have big problems as well like with bombings.
