Just curious, they were quick to jump the gun (ironically) all the other times similar incidents occurred...

My Jack Thompson bump is starting to itch, anybody else's? 

not yet but it will come.....it always does

There have been reports that the gunman played video games. It will happen - like anyone cares.

I think the real problem was his girlfriend broke up with him and he lost his job. That's the rub, not WOW or GTA.

^i also heard that his parent disowned him

I heard he was a big fan of Cooking Mama....but that's just speculation at the moment.

That's incorrect. He was a fan of "Diner Dash" and "Dead Rising" on the 360.

 Strange he didn't try to commit murder with baked potatoes and a barbeque fork then? I mean, the games show people how to kill according to JT and co... I always thought holding a gun and holding a gamepad was different, but apparently I'm wrong! I guess we all are, being gamers and all...-.

 I had heard that about the Dead Rising as well.  But that he was never very good at the game.

I mean seriously....how bad does someone have to suck at aiming.  All the time that there are these shootings the death toll is live 5-10 people...maybe 15.

Anyone with half a decent score at Halo or Dead Rising should be able to take out at least 50 people before the cops come.  

Mall/School shooters are teh casual. 

He also dropped out of school.

 That was...until the Wii!
