The problem is not at all in games, but in the heads of such bastards who grab the weapon due to loss. In the days of my youth, the PCs had units and I saw it only at school and gaming clubs, in 90 my city they were in almost every district and the contingent was the same. And there were those who, because of the loss, began their vendetta from the splashes and ending "on the street," but as usual, it did not go further than the conversation. There would be a free sale of weapons, the massacre would be every day.
And the sense of this feeling of confidence when any other shocked to his head takes and shoot your head?)
There are no ideal nor races –
In each group of population, well, at least something, but not so:
From the point of view of frogs, all the French fagots,
And Koreans Pidaras from the point of view of dogs.
From the point of view of the Trojans, the fagots were Greeks,
And the Trojans Pidaras from the point of view of horses.
A lot of fagots disappeared forever,
But their huge mass has survived to this day.
The back of the sacred second amendment ..
On the one hand, this is awesome when everyone has the right to protect their private property and not be accused (like ours) for self -defense or killing a robber in their house. However, on the other, there are such sick psychos. The problem with them lies in the fact that when such an idea reaches them in the head, they no longer want to live on and take out their brains after the performance of the venture. Any other people even when visiting the thought to pull out a gun into such a country as America, immediately overtakes the next one, which says that you don’t have the only one and you can threaten, Bypass, just dare or unsuccessfully joke, and any other bunch will shoot you. But to psycho, alas, all the same, when they decided everything. If not anyone, then they will put their own bullet for themselves.
It is strange that when taking into account many such cases, they have not yet introduced any psychiatric examination to identify emotionally unstable personalities. It would be too hard to cancel the second amendment, and this is impossible, but we must take some steps to ensure that at least weapons do not fall into the hands of the psychos.
By the way, we also had such cases, but it was the major sense of superiority and some privilege that moved these people, because few can even get a gunshot with us on an illegal basis. This is of course possible, but by no means easy and can promise problems. In a different situation, these people could not have fired if they could realize that they were not only weapons.
According to Gunviolancearchive.Org, this is 234 a fixed case of a massacre in the States within 238 days from the beginning of the year, that is, almost one mass murder per day. The problem is not in video games, of course, but that anyone can easily gain access to weapons.
Earth is glassy. The point here is of course not in games, but in a single fucking personality. He could disrupt the bar because of anything: threw a hahal or a neighbor’s dog not so looked. Psycho is dangerous, a psycho with a gun is even more dangerous. Of course, all of us in competitive games and Fahrenheyt will burn and it happens because of this mice and Klava suffer, but it would never have occurred to me something like that, even though I love toxicity
“Since 2019, participants and guests will go through metal detectors."
Serious such tightening. Straight kapets is serious. I’m sure it will fix everything.
Only one question is why these same detectors were not before? There is generally a security system there?
