In your persistant attack on BykrBayb's simple and logical statement that the perps had been shaped by their childhood experiences. Violent video games do train for violent lives.

There is nothing "simple and logical" about BykrBayb's statement. There is zero evidence that the perps learned how to commit deadly assault from a video game. That's simply ignorance on parade.

If you believe that a video game is responsible for this assault, you might as well believe that John Hinckley shot Ronald Reagan because he watched a movie ahead of time.

But hey, when you figure out the title of this supposed video game that teaches people how to perform a group beating on a school kid, let me know.

And there is zero evidence that I made such a claim, and plenty of evidence that I didn't. But like you said, the facts don't matter. It's the seriousness of the charge that counts.

That's simply ignorance on parade.

Is that the best excuse you can offer?

Why are you hypersensitive about violent video games? If you hope to convince anyone that there's no such thing as violent video games, maybe you shouldn't act like you're addicted to them.

Your entire reply is a nonsequitur.

Closing your eyes,
Plugging your ears,
And screaming La, La, La, La, La

You reject all that we know of human behavior.
