So what is the problem? You don&#x27;t think if we had a culture more averse to violence and less access to firearms shootings would drop? I&#x27;m a firearm owner, but I&#x27;m not so blinded by politics to make the connection that little Johnny isn&#x27;t gonna shoot up his class if he can&#x27;t sneak the gun out of his dad&#x27;s closet. I&#x27;m also not making the case that violent video games <i>cause</i> violence, but that we&#x27;re so casual about it in our society that folks become a bit more willing to do harm. Some folks hear voices in their head, some folks are just filled with hatred for their fellow man. Writing everyone who has committed a crime of that degree off as crazy does neither the mentally ill nor our ability to understand them any good.
