More gun laws due to school shootings

[JB White]

i dont buy that. they also play driving games recklessly as hell, but you dont see it manifest itself as a problem on the road. it just happens to be an easy target to point at, "oh its the games" in the 60's it was that long haired rock music, etc, etc. the problem isnt the things, its how people raise their kids. maybe im a bit quick to say its not games, maybe it should read kids are immersed in violence all day long, from movies, tv,games, internet, etc. couple that with feel good parenting and the results arent good.

I see more reckless young people playing Fast & Furious and Grand Theft Auto out on the roads on a regular basis than I do hearing of mental patients reenacting games like Call of Duty. Everyday some kid with a lawn mower muffler is either wrecking someone else or leaving the remnants of their own car wrapped up like a ball of foil with the plastic front clip skidding down the road. My own daughter got caught when she was a kid. Driving games and a '99 Grand Am was too much to resist. She was fined and had her DL on probation for four years.
Fortunately for us an unmarked car ran her down before anyone died. No booze. No drugs. Just the excitement of it all. I did jump all over her about weaving through traffic at over twice the limit though. Told her to get her brother's video game BS out of her head. A Cook County judge reinforced that.
