Dougy Posted Monday at 21:16 Report Share Posted Monday at 21:16 And what else do we expect As I said in previous posts, they do little to target illegal gun imports. Instead target legal gun owners and stand tall thinking they've achieved something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ditchman Posted Monday at 23:54 Report Share Posted Monday at 23:54 im sure alot of these brutal killings/murders/executions............are somewhat as a result of these over the top computor games.....where over time the player becomes accepting that death has no consequence or repercussions....and as a result the brain is trained to accept this and crosses over into the real world as the deviding line is no longer apparant... my thoughts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When my lad was young , his gaming time was strictly limited , due to the change in his attitude and behaviour , if he spent too much time using them.

Pukka Bundook Posted Tuesday at 05:05 Report Share Posted Tuesday at 05:05 I knew young lads so into gaming, they had no idea where the game ended and reality began. One carried a sword under his greatcoat. I think you are right Ditch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

countryman Posted Tuesday at 09:29 Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:29 I think people have changed and not for the better, obviously this one is extreme and not fit to live in society, I don’t live in fear of climate change, we will wipe ourselves out long before that does.

We know of course in real life this does not happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted Tuesday at 10:52 Report Share Posted Tuesday at 10:52 Totally unpreventable I would say. Illegally held firearm, bought illegally, and nothing in place for anyone to prevent it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
