Cheat Code Central's Josh Engen writes: "Just before Christmas, Wayne LaPierre, vice president of the NRA, called a press conference to hypocritically deflect any backlash from the Sandy Hook Elementary school shootings onto the video game industry. It was all very entertaining, until you realized that they're being entirely serious. Unfortunately, LaPierre's point of view is shared by enough people to justify an old-fashioned book burning. Except, instead of books, they'll be burning video games."
Helldivers 2 has become the talk of the town as players are seen discussing the game in real life with their friends and even strangers.
It's a sure sign of scraping the bottom of the barrel when you are "creating" "news" out of Reddit posts.
Everyone expected that the Order to defend 10 planets would fail. But, Helldivers 2 players did the impossible, surprising everyone.
A detailed guide that covers all the weapons in Helldivers 2, definitive tier list that details how effective they are.
The killer had serious mental issues and his own mother was teaching him to shoot a gun.
His mother left high powered weapons unlocked and unattended in a home with a child known for having serious mental illness. More than anyone this kid's mother is responsible for this terrible crime.
And of course the NRA needs a scapegoat because it's painfully f***** obvious that an irresponsible gun owner is COMPLETELY to blame for this horrible tragedy.
"president of the NRA"? He is no president. He is the leader of the U.S gun clan.
I can't recall any video games being found at the seen of the crime. They found a crazy young man with his mom's 3 automatic weapons. The 'Bush Master' had 30 round clips and some of those kids had their bodies ripped apart by up to seven bullets. So the answers is obviously: destroy video games and give everyone for of these harmless guns. If the kids had their own 'Bush Masters', they would have been able to take on this guy, who kill they because the thought he was playing Call Of Duty. If that sounds completely stupid to you, it is because... it is! But this is what the NRA is trying to argue.
Have they even confirmed that he was a gamer? Let's ignore the real problem here (obsession with real guns, extreme anti-social behavior) and take the easy way out by blaming games because unrealistic video games emulate reality!
I saw twitards fight outside of a twilight movie once...should we burn books because they clearly cause violence???
I wonder if it was the game that placed those guns in his hands and taught him how to shoot with accuracy oh wait that's not possible because its a game.
