When I was in high school we went to the bowling alley were they just got this new attraction in, for a quarter a game you could play "pong" electric tennis amazing. Then my kids started of on "duck hunt" and when Mario Brothers came out it was amazing the technology they had develope. Fast forward to today's young men. Growing up on games of war and destruction, we're you buy body amour and kill as much as you can, you die in the game you hit "reset" and start again, no harm done.
In the two recent shooting both boys in their early twenties put on some sort of body amour to go in and shoot up unarmed men, women and little children. Fire many rounds at their targets with semi auto weapons (no this is not about gun control, please don't go there, most of my guns are semi and I like them a lot). My point is many of the past mass shootings have been a mirror of the recent two and they seem to be straight out of a video game. I do believe that these shooters are mentally ill, but they draw these actions from somewhere, how much are some of these video games to blame? I doubt anyone went on a shooting spree after playing super Mario, how about call of duty?
