Jack Thompson is at it again. Pretty soon they'll be searching for copies of Les Miserables.

This theory would apply to R rated movies in the house of a juvenile as well. It is completely wrong.

Is there a video game where the gamer plays a police state that tries to censors everything in sight? I bet Jack Thompson would approve of THAT game...

Guns don't kill people - video games do.

Did he ever pay out for that video game that was created according to his "modest proposal"?

He is a special kind of scumbag media whore.

Did he say "gimme that paper" and "welcome to America" during the crime?

Jack Thompson is a friend of Doug Hagmann's (NEIN).

Just an interesting tidbit.

The kid is 16. Did they confiscate all the R-rated (nobody under 17) movies in the house? How about books/magazines of, um, questionable content for youth?

Anyone who lets their kids play first person shooters is guilty of neglect IMHO.

Go read up on the studies post WWI when the military went from practicing with bullseye targets to human shaped ones..

Video Games are not to blame I'm sure for this incident, but to subject kids to this sort of clearly effective mental conditioning is abuse.

I nailed JT on this issue a few years ago here on FR regarding a school shooting in Kentucky.

He was all over the games angle for the shooter but didn't even know what games the shooter played.

I knew kids who played games with the shooter and they said he didn't play any shoot-em up violent games, making JT dead wrong. Again.

LOL...you won't find him bragging about his work here on FR any more!

the detective said he is not drawing any conclusions from his findings. “I think it goes beyond video games,...”

Ya think?

Our boys play Call of Duty 1 and 2, and Medal of Honor. Both are rated M, and they have cursing and **horror** war scenes!!!!

Of course, I would never let them have something like Grand Theft Auto.

Anyway, I too think it goes beyond M-rated video games.

Nice to see JT's found a niche. I remember his rants and am glad it's elsewhere.
