Thats truly sickening, and her mother just casually dismisses it which makes the mother even more sick "Oh she wasn't listening so we put her in a bag" thats low, like really low.

Just wait for Fox to get a hold of this.

:lol: I'm actually looking forward to that, we'll probably see the news report, then 5"experts" who say consoles are bad for not only kids but also humans in general (can lead to child massacre). If I put this on System Wars people would be arguing what system the mother was playing since the system was so good she disregarded her child for it. So we don't have anymore "kids brains corrupt from gaming" anymore? I mean they'll have no choice but to say kids and adults shouldn't game.
I thought these things only existed in the movies, but some people really are this, well, lets called it "broken".
No new stations support video games IDK why everyone always cites FOX news it seems there's some ignorance on your part too exactly what i was going to say to this guy. if there is one thing and one thing only all news networks agree on 100% its that video games are the source of all evil[QUOTE="XVision84"]

Of course FOX isn't the only one, but like I said before, they're certainly the more outspoken ones, they also take it too far at times and seem to complain about video games the most.
Yeah, they really aren't doing anyone any good associating this story with video games.Kotaku really is f***ing stupid. This has f*** all to do with video games.

Well that's the reason this woman killed her child, because of video games. Obviously video games aren't to blame and the mother is messed up in the head, but it has to do with video games and is news that should be reported.
Exactly. Some people are not destined to be parents. They shouldnt have kids.[QUOTE="sonicare"]

Some people just shouldn't have kids. :(

Some people should be erased from the gene pool.
That mother has been erased from the gene pool. She just got rid of her only daughter(I think).Part of me is disgusted by this woman but the other half wishes I could find a girl as dedicated to gaming as she is. Am I an a** for feeling this way?Diablo-B
As dedicated as she is? So if she's playing her game, and you keep asking her if she wants to have "fun" with you, and interfere with her game time, and she does this to you, but you survive, would you still want her? If she was this dedicated, she'd be a psychopath.
Poor girl :( they even have the nerve to say that they didn't mean to kill her. That's just...ugh...XVision84So that must be why the "demon mother" had once written that she wouldn't cry if her daughter died. This whole thing sucks. Poor little girl. :cry:

Someone who is mentally disturbed commited a crime against a child. The illogical reason why she did such a thing is completely irrelevant. This has nothing to do with the video game industry or playing a video game. The media does not need to present this story in a way that highlights video games and gamers sure as hell don't need the negative press. I feel like they only even mentioned video games at all because they knew it would get more attention that way. If the dispute had been over the last slice of pizza or something else trivial I'm sure the article would not have even listed a reason for the crime. Normally journalists would focus on the crime itself and the trial of the murderer... but this is Destructioid so...Please Log In to post.
