    There is not only doubt to that..it is straight up false, and a Lie..At most its intellectually lazy thinking and blame shifting.

    Nope..If there were no Violent games, there would be the same number of mass killings in the USA via guns..If not more, because more people would be out on the street instead of at home playing games.

    Yes and Government acted immediately to ameliorate the impact of any future 'truck' attacks.

    No, the number is unchanged if you take video games out of the equation for gang related gun violence...It may possibly be higher, cause more of them would be on the street.

    Should the country have a permit system with violent video games, like many states have with cannabis?
    You can have your violent video games or you can have your real guns but you can't have both?

    They came to neutralise a specific arsenal. They did not come to take the weapons off the citizenry. Yes, they were run off, ultimately out and don't forget your eternal debt to France for that success.

    Yes. Why are you ignoring his and many other’s work on the profiling of young men who become mass murderers ???

    And again your links are irrelevant to the issue of the unstable few.

    They came to seize arms and ammunition. I guess you could call neutralizing ?? Whatever debt to France for the Revolution has been paid back in WWI and WWII.

    Not enough by far. The USA would likely not exist if the Froggies were not there assisting you boot out the Poms. From Wiki:

    You owe yourself an honest effort to determine the truth. But don’t feel bad, yours is a very common attitude around here.

    And all of Europe would be speaking German and all of Asia would be speaking Japanese if we hadn’t won WWII.

    I have seen a million shootings in movies. In some action movies, the body count is so large I've lost count of the dead. Are video games more violent than movies?
