Sound And Fury, Indicating Nothing
So, I haven't really been posting lately. Sorry about that. I've been dealing with the lurking remnants of a cold.
There's been another college shooting, this one at NIU. Five dead, including the shooter. And what do you know, once more, Jack Thompson takes his dog-and-pony show on FOX News and blames video games before the bodies have even cooled.
Then again, by now it's been pretty firmly proven that the legal community does not hold Jack Thompson in the highest respect, and that FOX News knows approximately shit about video games. So, when you think about it, it's kind of like watching a game of paintball where none of the guns have ammo. There's no real gravity in the first place, and whatever tension remains has been removed.
Still. Way to ride the wave of destruction, assholes.
