@CharlesBurns @crashmer Actually, i broke my controller the other day because of MG Rising Revengeance and it was definitely the games fault, not mine. I admit that I'm the one who did it and it's something I haven't done in 10 years, but that was about 99% the game because its a horrbly designed broken nightmare of a game when you have to fight a boss.

@doriot Are you joking? What socialist school do you go to again? Anything from Michael Moore should be absent from a classroom. He was reasonable 30 years ago but that man is an insane socialist weasel, you can see it on the news and his interviews and the way he intentionally edits his videos.

@timoteo2k1 Frankly it's no one's prerogative to involuntarily have you enrolled in any mental health care program - the government does have that power, at the whim of a judge, which is absolute bullshit because the vast majority of the time it is improperly dispensed on kids who get a DUI rather than a certifiable sociopath or otherwise mentally broken person. The fact that you can have someone committed, or could have someone committed, to an insane asylum in this country is absolutely insane and against the constitution. That isn't to say that you shouldn't be able to without the express, official consent of multiple different doctors, because you should. Similarly, this law you are talking about that got shot down, should be legal but if and only if you get the consent of multiple health care professionals who work in that field and have worked with that patient.

I understand it sounds like a lot of effort to go to in order to defend the rights of an insane person but it's not that much extra work to do if someone really needs to get treatment, if it's a friend or family member. At some point they may have to be involuntarily examined by a doctor or whatever and then it gets hairy but what can you do?

@JURGMANDR People like you are the ones who shouldn't own guns, not the "conspiracy-nuts" like me. There's no reason to ever kill an animal unless you ran over a deer or some similar situation of necessity. To sit and act like killing animals isn't sociopathic but suddenly killing a human being is so much different, is a flat-out lie. I've never shot a damn thing other than paper with any of my rifles or handguns or shotguns.

@sgt_F79 Your first example is mafia? Not the HOLOCAUST? Not the tens of millions killed by Stalin? Polpot? Pinochet? Mussolini? The Crusades? WW1? The Romans? The Christians? The civil war? Really? Compared to most of history the mafia is nothing.

@SicoWasher Personally I do not support ID Carding for anything other than beer and cigarettes, and credit cards, but if carding is what it takes to stop kids from buying games and that makes our lives easier as adult gamers, I will support it. Though it begs the question, who is actually buying them the games? I'm betting their parents.

@icekula @DiamondSlicer Not sure what you mean, my Mossberg 500 does no such thing. Though it does have just the pistol grip and it's uncomfortable to fire.

@Diegocr @rekm222 Rough love is the only love when it comes to someone being ignorant and too stupid to understand history and the most simple of concepts. The 2nd Amendment is not for hunting. It is not for home protection./ These are simply added bonuses. The second amendment restricts the government from dicking with our guns because the guns are there to keep the government from trying any funny business. Obviously it hasn't worked because the government in the past 20 years has driven us on a magic school bus-drill straight to hell without having to violate the 2nd amendment - though they have certainly violated as many other Bill of Rights amendments as they possibly could. Why? Though technically the Brady act in the first place is unconstitutional, as is the absurd new law in New York and the laws in Chicago.

How do you think we won our freedom from tyranny and oppression by the British? With guns. We shot them. The people who created this country paid in their blood so that everyone else could live in freedom, and the government more than anyone else has been responsible for trampling all over that and ruining it. At t his point, the constitution may as well have been lit on fire and thrown in the Potomac because Bush and Obama especially have destroyed it.

The "assault" rifles have the most noble purpose of all guns, keeping this f***** country the land of the free. What mentally unbalanced psychopaths who shouldn't be allowed to own, purchase, or be put in a situation where they can easily access guns that aren't theirs, or who steal guns - do with them is not a reflection on the guns. It's a reflection on the people themselves and the society and the fact that we let people who need help roam free.

@Daemoroth ...........Actually I was going to call you an uneducated moron but there's no point in trying to reach out to the most ignorant people on the planet.

@ShaineTheNerd As a gamer and an owner of a veritable arsenal of rifles, shotguns, and handguns, no. I would sooner lose my ability to purchase and play video games than I would ever submit to unconstitutional 2nd amendment persecution. That isn't to say that both the NRA and video game lobbyists both don't need to stfu and be adults, because they do. It's a much more complex situation than that, unfortunately. Anyway, I agree with the second half of what you said. Anyone with common sense sees that these problems are not because of games or movies, they are a product of the environment and way in which a person is raised. Mentally healthy, loved human beings do not go out and shoot everyone.
