    I think it’s video games.

    Certainly not solely, but a kid who plays a first person shooter 10 hours a day will be impacted.

    Really it's about the desensitizing of people due to technology. Many if most young people now, don't talk to other people unless they have to. It's all via SMS and social media. Life isn't real to a lot of young people today.

    I watched a townhall on teenage suicide and mass violence last week. And the overarching cause that came down from both the "experts" and the kids was the isolation that technology has allowed. Be it social media, smart phones, video games, message boards and what have you. People do not know how to A: Converse in a healthy manner anymore and B: Do so respectfully. I give you the Tug as exhibit A. Imagine the Tug but a bunch 15 y/o's on it.
    There’s absolutely no data linking video games to violence

    Nice try old man
    It's clear that you only read the first line and then shit poasted. And didn't really even comprehend that well.


    Can you tell me about the time when you begged Derek to ban you from the board last time around and the consequence that led to it?

    Because at least 81% of the board would like to help you to get back to that place again.

    You’re losing it race

    Maybe take the religion OUT of schools then? Or only Christianity prevents mass shootings?
    You might be on to something.

    Any loser creep can go to a public school. Private schools usually do some vetting.

    No shit shootings are way more likely at public schools. Next you’re going to tell me there’s more violent crime in big crowded cities than small gated communities?
    Huh? Hondo was just saying poor neighborhoods are awesome. Best people live there. No?

    So what you’re saying is rich people who have a sense of right and wrong send their kids to religious schools were those kids don’t mass murder their classmates? Crazy theory, but you might be onto something.
    Rich people have less need to commit crimes. Because they have, you know, money.
    If poverty caused crime to increase how do you explain that crime during the Great Depression dropped? And how do you explain the explosion in crime in the 1960s during a period of time when the poverty rate was falling? Crime also exploded in the late 80s and early 90s again during a period of declining poverty rates. So how do you explain it?

    Your premise that some increase in crime in the late 80s compares to the increase from 1963 into the 1970s is laughable. And the explosion in the mid-60s is very easy to explain: the oldest baby boomers were entering their prime crime committing years.

    Take it up Zone Kunt, he claims that increase in crime is caused by low school funding and poverty. What's even more laughable is your misrepresentation of what I said.

    Did it increase due to low school funding O'Keefed? Funny how you're all OUTRAGED over my description about how crime increasing late 80s and 90s and yet you say nothing about the complete bullshit about poor school funding being it's cause.

    Did crime increase in the late 80s and 90s O'Keefed? Did it increase during a period of falling poverty rates? My comparison wasn't to equate the rise in crime in the 1960s to the rise in crime in the late 80s it was to show that crime has increased during periods of falling poverty rates.

    There's the passive aggressive Kunt act.

    Were the questions too fucking tough for you O'Keefed, and why no OUTRAGE over the bullshit claim about school funding being tied to violent crime rates? Did crime increase in the late 80s O'Keefed? Your dodge of the question provides the answer.

    So really the entire purpose of your response was over my use of the word "explosion" and over a comparison I wasn't making.

    Bravo O'Keefed, one of your better head up the ass moments.

    They certainly do. Now you just need to show where I was comparing the rise in crime in the 1960s to the rise in crime in the late 80s. Your head is up your ass O'Keefed. The comparison was between two periods of time with declining poverty rates but with increasing crime rates. It wasn't a comparison of how much crime rose during each period.

    But I enjoyed watching you shove your head up your ass and dance around for my entertainment.
