Don't Believe The Hype: A Stupid Movie Or A Pointless Video Game Never Killed Anybody
Guns kill lots of people, though. The NRA pushback is going to be to talk about entertainment and media and not about guns. (You can already see it on Fox News today. Their talking points are coming straight from the NRA, I'm sure. Fox News and Teabagger Nation are just as much a part of the Great American Retard Machine as the NRA is.) Anyone who accepts that framing is a dangerous fool who is not to be trusted. Australia has our movies and our video games. The UK has our movies and our video games. Ireland has our movies and our video games. What they don't have is mass shootings, because they don't have guns. In those places, violent crime is not deadly crime the way it is in the United States. The difference is that the UK and Australia had mass shootings and immediately removed the deadly weapons from the society and stopped mass shootings 100%. Video games and movies don't kill people. Guns kill people. Until the United States gets the deadly weapons out of the society, we will continue to have mass shootings.
