Exactly. Even in the old days when computer games were not created, there were still suicides, arguments and violence. Infact, more vicious crimes such as Acid baths were in those days. Im waiting for someone to try saying Hitler used games to come up with the Holocaust idea, of which is impossible.imahobbit4062 said:

An Eyewitness had this to say: "I saw two video-game cases pull this kid into the bathroom and I was shocked"
Police are now on the search for these two criminals:
They are very dangerous and if you know of their whereabouts please contact the police.
I am surprised we haven't blamed this on terrorism... or democrats... or republicans...
or... I don't know... the kid who hung himself?

If you actually watched the video, she barely goes into violent video games. She really talked about family, childhood depression and possible abuse. However, I do agree that playing the "Blame Game" on video games is a bit, dare I say, ignorant? Why can't things just be the people in someone's life? I'd imagine that there was something going on this his home/school life that pushed him a bit. Maybe he was ignore a lot or looked over. Hell, kids are mean as fu- man. Someone could've told him, "No on likes you. You're better off dead." on a regular basis. After awhile, that shit gets to you. Especially for a small child. Having a positive upbringing that promotes high self-esteem and self-awareness can be detrimental to anyone. Maybe he did have a chemical imbalance. Maybe he was abused. But that's all speculation. We won't know what really happened because they're only telling the family what brought this child to want to end his life.
I do feel terrible for the nurse though. I think I might hafta retire or something after knowing that a child killed themself under my watch and care.

His father molesting him was completely unrelated of course.
Honestly, why would a kid be playing violent video games? Did his parents go out and buy him M rated content? If so then they have nobody to blame but themselves for the exposure, it's the same as going out and buying your nine year old 18+ moves.

Wow. Where did he get his fucking doctor degree from? A hobo? Seriously, how about looking in his school environment to see the shit this kid has to put up with for once?
Where can I buy the game that you hang yourself in, sounds awesome?
There's always some reason or this shit, but it's never "he was unhappy with something in his life...". Things like friends, family, something extremely bad happening in his past, or a recently series of bad luck.... People don't kill themselves because they've seen it on tv or played games where you kill people, they do it because they're unhappy, maybe have mental issues (like depression), or get stressed to breaking point. I don't care what some ***** with no evidence of anything says, tbh, it's just another way for the media to pretend to care while running the agenda of all the mums who want TV and games and the internet to raise their kids.

people always want to point the finger at someone or something else other than themselves.
when the columbine incident happened they had blamed Maralin Manson because of his music for corrupting them when it was just the retardation of the two teens.
it is never the person's own fault it is alwyas something else.

So a nine year old kid enters a nurses restroom with a rope, somehow learned to knot a sling, attaches it on the ceiling somehow(how tall can a nine year old be? did he bring a ladder? did he climb to the top? where did he put the rope? a lamp,maybe? wouldn't it break?) and kills himself for no apparrent reason?
Is it just me, or does this sound slightly unbelievable?

Strange, I often play video games to stop myself from having suicidal thoughts. Once again, pointless assertions from people who know fuck all about video games.
What that kid needed was a Tim Schafer game, or maybe Ratchet and Clank.

How are the video games even linked to the boy's actions? Just because he played them? Unless every young person who has killed themselves recently played video games also, I really don't even begin to see the correlation between the two. And even if there is correlation, correlation does not automatically equal causation. That's pyshcology 101.
Yeah, apparently its the norm to blame a bunch of flashy images on a screen over the peopleWanderFreak said:
that are supposed to be taking care of this kid.....
What a sad day we live in.
I'm sorry you feel that way. Oh, and the intended age group for Dora is NOT 8-12.Pyromaniac1337 said:
Thank you! God damn, I picked up the controller for Resident Evil (1996) and Dino Crisis (1999) when they first came out. I was obviously younger then, mind you, and I don't have problems.Z of the Na said:
I'd love to see America (or any other country) blame this on video games if the graphics and games were still that of the Atari. OH DEAR GOD! That dot just...killed, I think...THAT OTHER DOT! Wait...wait the dot is um...it's...a dot.
My prayers do go out for the kid though. No one should commit suicide so young...no one should even contemplate it.
look, it's about time that the media stopped trying to blame things on video games. if someone kills themselves, maybe they are depressed, and if the go out and kill other people they probably have a mental condition, these so- called 'scientists' seem to think that there was no crime before videogames.
