I listened to your droning rant in your "video". You have your "opinion" regarding Belcher and Suh, but you've done zero research into their backgrounds. You make causal claims for why Belcher killed his girlfriend and then himself, as well as making causal claims as to why Suh is an on-field bully. You provide zero evidence (obviously, since you can't be bothered to do any research into either of these individuals, or anyone else you wish to demonize for your amusement).

Would your accusations about Belcher's homelife and upbringing remain unchanged were you to find out he attended a high school with nearly 100% graduation rates? Or, that 86% of graduates from his high school went on to attend college? Or, how Belcher was described as a model student who sat at the front of the classroom? Would any of this information make any difference to you? No? Based upon your rantings and ramblings, I'd guess the answer would be no. You much prefer to just trash people without any having any knowledge regarding that person.

The people who are attempting to make this tragedy about gun violence are morons. Unfortunately, you're no better than they are for suggesting the cause is Belcher's homelife and upbringing. No one knows the full story on why Belcher killed his girlfriend, and then himself. No one may ever really know. But, anyone who attempts to use this tragedy for their own warped purposes, you included, are only compounding the tragedy. Shame on you.

I read the first couple sentences of your harangue and stopped at your error about my assumptions. I clearly stated in the video that I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TYPE OF UPBRINGING IN WHICH BELCHER OR SUH WERE RAISED.

I was making a general point about the violent culture of today. I uploaded that last night. Limbaugh made the exact same point in great depth today on his show.

One having good grades has absolutely nothing to do with violence. Dillon Kleebold and Eric Harris came from fairly affluent homes and probably received good grades as well.

Where someone sits in the classroom has nothing to do with morality. They however were avid players of violent video games such as “Doom”, which desensitizes children and those who play them to murder, the object of the game.

I’m sure my logic will not sway you nevertheless. But please do not selectively use my words and omit others that obviously contradict your assertions.
