    Wrong. I have facts, logic, history, the law, and the Constitution.

    Wrong again. My views are backed by facts, logic, history, the law, and the Constitution.

    And they are just your opinions.

    Pass the laws and let scotus decide

    And you certainly have your right to them, however, IMO, some are lacking fundamentally sound judgment. You're not alone though, and it's going to cost us all.

    Wrong. Facts are not opinions.

    No. We will continue to prevent unconstitutional laws from being passed.

    My views are all sound and backed by both facts and the law.

    Freedom doesn't cause any harm to anyone.

    Here is a fact. Only scotus gets to decide what is constitutional.


    Are you on scotus? Lol

    No, I didn't, I looked at the report. Every link was to someone's opinion and not to an actual scientific study. And you still didn't answer the question, which was what does that have to do with video games? My original response was that video game players are less likely to engage in violent crimes. You still haven't responded to that except with this unrelated post.

    Hmmm, no.

    This is one of the places where you have a problem. Your understanding of freedom needs to be worked on. For example, when you pay a gangster to protect your business, that isn't freedom, it's extortion.

    Europe has knife and baseball bat violence. Japan hides their violence under the rug. Violence is violence regardless the weapon used.

    Anyone who is advocating for reducing private ownership of firearms based on reducing gun facilitated deaths is a raging hypocrite if they don’t also advocate for prohibition.

    How much lower? Doubtful since the whole population is less than 127 million. How many Japanese kids play video games? You don't know - you're just making crap up. As everyone else has already pointed out, we have a constitutional right to own guns. And there's nothing you can do about it. You like Europe and Japan - go. You won't be missed.

    She is in Australia but pokes her nose into the business of America. I think she has too much time on her hands.

    I really have to laugh that you believe that a 100 pound woman is walking around with a finger on the trigger. Use some common sense. Violence against women doesn’t come with a warning
