Shade of idiot Jack Thompson with brain worm here.
Crime in the US peaked in 1993… when Doom first came out. Then it started dropping until recently.
Conclusion: violent video games cause a drop in crime.
But it peaked the same year Doom came out. Obviously Doom was the cause of the peak!
I should add, that as less people played Doom, violent crime reduced.
Tap for spoiler
Ok no the double down will woosh someone, here’s your /s
Doom is a game made by a cultist where the player goes to hell to interact with demons!!!
Ban the Mormon made demon killing game!
You mean the same dumbass that blames an ingredient that hasn’t been in vaccines in over 20 years for Autism, an ingredient that has never been shown to cause autism in the first place? Does anyone actually take this jackass seriously?
Bobby Kennedy must be rolling over in his grave.
Yeah unfortunately 40% of Americans do take this jackass seriously.
Well he’s right.
Until the invention of video games no one ever killed anyone ever. Then pong came along, and it was mass murder every other day.
Proof:
I’m bout to pong yo eye out, mutha flicka!
Ooh, so original. Going back to those age old talking points eh. So fresh, so new. Why does anyone listen to these wind bags?
Not this again…
Back to the 90s.
Hear me out…James Tiberius Kirk was supposed to be a descendant of Charles Aswipe Kirk. Slowly these photos will fade away and be replaced by photos of Christopher Pike.
He has two kids. Maybe one of his daughters hands her last name down
Then we’d be in a timeline where Spock dies instead, which ends up much worse. (per Strange New Worlds)
I concur
Battlefield and CoD are responsible for war?
Oh jeez, I glad they didn’t have video games in 1914, otherwise they might have killed a bunch of people!
RFK Jr do better…Tylenol killed 7 people in the 90s, Kirk was obviously killed by Tylenol.
What’s old is new again…
No what’s old is running the government
RFK Jr. Blames violent video games for Mass Shootings.
I agree. Those who miss out on playing violent video games, end up resorting to real life violence later.
Binding of Isaac is why I torture children /s
Remember when Coloumbine happened and politicians started blaming DOOM (a several year old game at that point) and Quake? Hell didn’t they also try to blame the Matrix simply because the shooters were wearing trench coats? meanwhile the film came out like what? one or two weeks before the shootings?
Politicians just LOVE their scapegoats.

Not sure if this is the type of reaction post appropriate here.
Switzerland has a comparable number of guns as we do, and the last mass shooting they had was 23 years ago
so does he believe that Swiss people do not play video games, or what
He was so close to the truth, yet so damn far
I love that he is telling something stupid, trying to validate it by using a fact that is probably the best way to prove how stupid it is.
So it’s a mass shooting now? Feels like a slap in the face to every other incident
If you’re referring to the Kirk shooting, this was before that.
Ohh gotcha
Kirk was pretty dense.
I mean, typical boomer shit from an ignorant boomer. I’m not surprised at all.
