Posted 3 months, 1 weeks ago by QMarc80

So I was looking at Ubergames a few minutes ago and noticed this article about what two kids did and why they did it. Or so the police think.

I have to give them credit for being smart enough for using something like video games as a scapegoat. i mean, what better way to get out of a prison sentence then by saying video games made you do it? BTW, nice hair cut red hot chil peppers man. nice. fresh, cut.

Going crime spree after a game of GTA IV. I do it all the time.
RIGHT! These guys are just completely insane, not gamers.

Funny you should mention drugs and alcohol because tonight at work someone died right in front of me when the EMT's were trying to help her. She had apparently taken 2 bags of cocaine and drank waaaaaay before that, too. They were able to bring her back, though, which is questionably good.

No, don't get me wrong. I always love reading about how the higher-ups think videogames are the reason for all this, it's the same every time and it's a good laugh. Violent kids play GTA? That's like saying Cocaine addicts drink beer. ZOMFG LINK!

@ Puxel

Agreed. Just felt like letting people read the article. That's all. I should've posted it under "Blog".

"The teens spanned ages between 14 and 17. Two of them had prior records, one for burglary and larceny, the other for drug possession."
Violence kids like violent games. No news here.
