Mass Effect and the Connecticut Shootings.

Recently Bioware's Mass Effect page on Facebook has been receiving a lot of negative feedback. This has nothing to do with ME3's ending, but rather people blaming this series for the deaths of the innocent children in Newtown. Apparently Adam Lanza's brother liked the series, so obviously that meant Adam was influenced by Mass Effect to kill kindergardeners. Of course, we have seen this story before where people blame video games on violence in the world. But it never gets any less frustrating to hear constantly. How would you know for sure if Adam himself liked the series? Don't you think that there are other serious psychological issues to consider? People, quit using games as a crutch to blame on a terrible tragedy. Mass Effect doesn't deserve this.

P.S., my heart goes out to the people of Newtown.
