Pay attention. I did not blame it on video games. I take it you are a video game player on a hair trigger. I said that the shoot from the hip accuracy shown in some of these attacks, especially the ones by the young teens back in the 80s/90s was probably due to the shooter games then very popular. I am not sorry I stepped on your oh-so-sensitive toes.

My "hair trigger" is over displays of ignorance where it impacts my interests and blaming cultural issues on extraneous things. It looked like you were implying that a shooter's accuracy could be improved by playing video games. But maybe you mean(t) their lack of accuracy? Which would be semi-valid. But in reality, shooting from the hip costs ya accuracy in games, too. At best, they may learn that "cover is your friend". But apparently these dipsticks seeking recognition didn't even get that much from it.

So mebbe we are just misunderstanding each other, FRiend. d;^)
