Video games and all artforms qualify as free speech so they are protected by the First Amendment and it would be unconstitutional to ban them. There are already hundreds of millions of copies of these games out there anyway, so any ban would be unfeasible.

We really only want to ban them for the most unstable Filmboarders.

The 9 people that haven't committed a mass shooting yet because we don't play those games a lot.

That's interesting.
But you're on that list because you're unstable.

Meanwhile, another mass shooting happened while you were focusing on me.

There is no evidence backing that up. You're regashing 90's era talking points.

Well there should be. Because the more popular those games got, the more mass shootings. We have a culture that obsessed with guns and violence.
Look at the most popular games on Twitch. It's all first person shooter games.
And the mass shooters act like they are in a first person shooter game.
No motive. Just random killing.

That's retarded andnnor how evidence works. Shootings aren't caused by video games.

You're an idiot if you don't see the connection. It's not that there's more crazy people and more guns. It's that the video games inspire a culture of obsession with shooting up people.

No you're an idiot for misattributing insufficient reasons for tragedies. If it's video games, then how come most people who play FPS games don't do mass shootings, Einstein?

No the **** I'm not! If a study was done, they would see a clear connection between the two!!
Everything in society is the same as it's been for 40 years except those ****ing first person shooter games!
I should know cuz I'm over 40 years old and I've seen the evolution of video games influence on society.
There aren't more guns and more crazy people than before
It's the video games!!

There have been studies.
Again, if it causes shootings, why do most people who play don't shoot anyone irl?

Why aren't there mass shootings in Canada, Germany, etc? They don't play first person shooters there?

They don't have easy access to gun like here in the US.
