BBC News – Columbine families sue computer game makers.
Yes, folks. It’s that old chestnut. Not content with suing the parents of the kids who did it (like they’re not devastated enough that their own sons committed the atrocity and then killed themselves), they’re turning on something else completely blameless.
Look. If someone’s screwed up enough to walk round a school shooting unarmed people, then anything could set them off. It it wasn’t Doom, it’d be Dirty Harry, Akira or wanting to shut Barney the bloody purple dinosaur up. To quote the article:
“In Doom, players take on the role of a lone space marine stalking corridors and shooting creatures with a variety of weapons.”
Yes. This mirrors walking round a public building, killing innocent kids in real life IF YOU’RE ALREADY MENTAL.
You may notice there are only a handful of winners in these court cases. It won’t be the computer games companies as the legal fees will cost them. It won’t be the parents, as the legal fees will cost them and they’ll lose anyway.
It’ll be the people earning the legal fees. How on earth do you think the case has gotten as far as it has anyway? Lawyers must be the only people rubbing their hands together with glee every time there’s another school massacre.
Parasites.
