German Advocacy game drive didn't go so well

Post by Hobie-wan »

Information about the drive.

Saying it didn't go so well is actually a bit of an understatement. :lol:

While I feel bad for the victims and families of the tragedy, as usual people try to find a scapegoat instead of realizing that the perpetrators had issues long before playing the games or taking responsibility for bad parenting. :(

Hilarious. Serves them right for trying to use video games as a scapegoat.

If everything that wasn't rust or water was a game, maybe 5. :lol:

Hence the "if", it was sarcasm. There was noticeably "other stuff" in there, can't really tell what...

I feel bad and good about the topic. It's bad because they are people that have lost someone against violence and are trying to do their best to stop more violence. It's also something good because I don't think video games are at fault. If they were, how many of us could be criminals? But I do feel bad for those people and that it looks like they are being laughed at all over the place. :(
Thanks everyone...

Of course video games lead to crime. In particular, marijuana smoking and copyright violation.

I like how they had this giant dumpster ready as if they were expecting thousands of people to turn out to throw away their $50 purchases. They probably should have just brought a ziploc bag.
