“psychotic junkies”.... Wow.

Those are powerful words.

The virtual games are a great extension of the physical games we all loved. As far as Minecraft being “Digital Legos” Lego already brilliantly handled that with their interactive legos. So kids could physically build stuff and then integrate it with programs and functions from the computer. Those functions never came in a “finished form” so the kids had to apply some basic programming to make it happen.

Brilliant. And what happened ? No one bought it. Too tough. Too much work. And this is what you get.

But all of those games.. like Arma. Arma has a mod for it called “Arma city” or something like that. It’s a digital version of cops and robbers. It’s a lot of fun, and it’s addictive. But the problem is not that parents are letting their kids play the virtual games - it’s that their parents aren’t letting them play THE REAL game. Could you imagine a bunch of kids today running around with bandanas and cap guns playing cops and robbers ? The parents would be put in jail !

All of our problems come down to ONE SINGLE THING. Democrats.

Nope. Lazy parents. People are so damned lethargic these days they don’t even discipline their crumb crunchers.

That’s OK, though, the cops can just shoot them later when as adults they throw their lethal temper tantrums. Just had a friend last August do just that. Shot a temperamental kid that drew a gun because he didn’t want to be told what to do. Dead kid. So, society can just go ahead and let their kids grow up without any self discipline; we’ll just shoot them later.
