another dumass a fox is blameing video game i knew this was comming



i can spell for *****



1post!!!!!!!!!!

He lost his job to someone who played Counter-Strike and now acts like a political know-it-all for game related events.



Just because 1 million people have fun getting headshots and knifing people does not mean that 1 million shootings are going to happen. I think that 10 people who have mental problems can play a game or watch a movie and not know what they are doing is wrong or feel that it is.



This guy just wants the billions of dollars the entertainment industry gets.

Which is the idiot? Thompson, Fox News or both?

I woudl email him and tell him to suck my D

but I might get sued



He needs to stop feeding off these shootings lol If I went nuts and shot people the last thing in the world you could blame would be violent vid games.... I play fantasy RPG's not shooters lol



Oh ***** I beat a guy to death with a hammer it must be donkey kongs fault bring up nintendo on charges shakes head

FTW!! HE ROX!

Weird. Everytime a shooting like this happens, Jack "Videogames kill people" Thompsons pops up just seconds later and says "Videogames are the cause of his shooting".

Jack your a big ***** he only did it because he stoped taking his meds what a ***** head.

It's like he hopes these things happen, like he sits on the edge of his seat just waiting for something tragic so he can blame it on video games the same day. I don't think he even cares that it happened, he just wants attention.

@ Kingofdaberbz

"Games don't kill people,people kill people."



correction. people don't kill people, people with guns kill people.



-my 2 cents



p.s.: if jack blamed the guns in school shootings he might be liked more, but who knows...

Pretty much as soon as i heard about the shooting, I was like, "Jack Thompsons gonna jump all over this *****".

Video gamers are to 1337 to kill people in RL.

We're playing simulators O_O

I cant believe it, I thought flight simulator and gran turismo were the only sims.. OH and Sims (--_-- obviously), and armored core..

If I was over there, you guys will see my fist coming from the side and nock him the ***** out. then I'll say to fox news 'Video games is not the cause of this, that man is *****ing idiot!"

Jesus Jack Thompson why don't you ban paintball and super soakers too? They're almost like guns its like a "simulator" of a real gun.

This guy was on MEDS what do u expect when he doesn't take them?

Why Counter Strike of all games? I play Counter Strike and loads of other FPS's and trust me I'm not about to go and shoot my entire class (even if some of them deserve it).

I don't get why the minute something like this happens this fool goes out and blames video games. I also don't get why they NEVER absolutely NEVER blame the gun manufacturers. I mean why give a gun to a guy on MEDS?





PS : Yes I know my opinions are old but I felt like letting it out especially after I saw the vid.

i cant wait for the day theres a school shooting or something to that effect, Jack will jump out saying its video game related, only to find out the person hasn't touched a video game console in his/her life. and even after that kind of ownage hed still go on and on.

thanks for reminding me BRAINSCAN is a sweet movie to d/l

This guy always brings me to a boiling point..



He's blaming videogames..what about all the war propaganda and gun sales in america..i bet that has nothing to do with all this ***** thats happening...

In the video, he says there was a chapter of his book which was deleted of a student going out onto a stage of an auditorium with a shotgun. Maybe that got leaked to the internet or the kid somehow got hold of this chapter of his book and thought, "hey that's a good idea." So this could be Thompson's fault for giving the kid the idea.

This picture is old. Change it. :)

The only way this could be the cause of video games, is if the guy was unable to differentiate fantasy from reality. As other people were saying, it's a mental disability. The content of the game doesn't matter, as long as the gamer him/herself knows it's not reality. And if someone of that age couldn't differentiate the two, then that's a serious mental problem, and people like that should not play video games.

I don't know, Jack might have a point. I mean just the other day, I was playing pac man, and after finishing the game, I suddenly had a craving for dots. I started eating anything round shaped. I then proceeded to find some exceptionally large tylenol pills, which I ate. Suddenly, everyone turned blue, and I ate them. I then saw some ghosts on the street, and they were moving really really fast. So, I jumped out in front of one, and I tried eating it (it was blue). For some reason, I heard the ghost honk real loudly, and it swerved. Unfortunately, the ghost still ran over me. I died. Avenge me!



... Ok, in all seriousness though, sometimes when I finish playing a fighting game (like tekken), I do suddenly have an urge to go to the local dojo to beat up on people ;P
