I watched segments on both CNN and FOXNEWS where they actually claimed that movies and video games are at least partly responsible for these shootings.It is directly because of the media’s nonstop glorification of these horrific events that these psychotic losers are instantly turned into rock stars with over 100,000,000 people knowing who they are and the media is blaming this on movies and video games?
Un-fuckin’-believable.
Everyone knows that the higher the body count; the more the media covers the event and the shooter so it’s pretty much a motivation for those seeking notoriety to kill as many innocents as they can.
If you’re looking for someone to blame take a look in the mirror, a$$holes.

No easy-to-understand rationale for mass shootings. Theory of fame as an incentive to kill seems implausible for killers who commit suicide because they should want to live to enjoy the fruits of their labour.
There are many other theories. A famous theory is that watching violent entertainment DESENSITIZES people so that they won't resist urge to kill. A more pluasible theory is that ANGER, pain or revenge makes people kill. However psychologists claim the vast majority of homicides are caused by sane people and not those with mental orders.

Also violent entertainment promote violence as a solution to problems in gun culture. Of course, not every viewer resort to killing but some people do. Young men commit majority of violent crimes as agressive behaviour is more socially acceptable for males than for females.

That is stupid. We have exactly the same movies and video games but no school shootings.
Why the U.S leads the world in school shootings is hard to say.
Maybe you have more mentally ill people - you also lead the civilized world in the use of psychopharmaca which would indicate a bad mental health in general.

you bring up another issue in the USA. the amount of prescription drugs prescribed is the most of any country by a long shot. no one has any clue what the long term side effects of medication for add or the likes. it may even cause imbalances in future children
a lot of prescription med have adverse side effects but since it's a billion dollar industry the government and everyone looks the other way from prescription drugs being the most abused of any drug in the country

You cannot totally dismiss the influence of violent games, movies, and music on people though.
If the best selling games and movies were about trying to be nice to people, I am sure that would have an influence on people too.
Media influence wasn't the cause but had to have played a part. Like thirdperson said, it desensitizes us.
I wasn’t totally dismissing it.
I was pointing out that the jackasses that are a huge part of the problem sit there with their crocodile tears passing out blame to everything and everyone except themselves.

A mentally unstable person with access to 'unsecure' guns-is what caused this tragedy. Not movies & video games. Gun owners have got to lock up their guns or this'll eventually happen again.

Before movies/video games there were comicbooks and the Red Scare. The worst school killing in US happened in 1926 in Illinois school with 58 people/children killed. A disgruntled elected offical blew up the school with dynamite. How does a Progressive press spin this?

I blame it on media, movies, MTV, music, video games, etc.... Since this type of garbage happens in America, I blame it on the American culture. We are fuc.ked in the head, and I also blame bad parenting

I have exactly nothing to add to that.
If notoriety really were the goal then it seems odd he would kill himself. He would never know his notoriety. Now James Holmes didn't kill himself, he's still around, so I can see it there.

No, but it would have helped if mommy hadn't brought a cache of weapons home and took him out to shooting ranges teaching him to use assault rifles.
Another winning post.
Also, ya suppose this kid would have been able answer FF questionaire to apply for gun ownership? Heck no, he was taking anti psychotic medication and mommy knew it.

....Mommy was home schooling her creepy little introverted son that had either multi personailty disorder, Assburgers, Autism or all of the above. We don't know but seems apparent that he wasn't properly diagnosed. She was obviously a gun enthusiast and control freak. (How many women own a a Glock .40, Sig 9mm and a 223 AR-15 with at least a 15 round clip.
She spent good quality time with her kid at the range teaching how to handle semi autos. He had an aptitude for it and well...eventually the tiger turns on the trainer. Left the guns unlocked and this twisted mind rattled and was free to handle any of these weapons and ammo.
