Games blame for the shooting NIU

Jack Thompson is another opportunity to blame games

It did not much for Florida attorney Jack Thompson to play video link to the tragic slaughter of the University of Northern Illinois.

Fox News recently hosted Thompson, where he proceeded to pin the NIU shooter Steven Kazmierczak the violent actions of the games. Thompson began, “We found the brain imaging studies at Harvard that if you start to play, for example, violent video games can you are more likely to imitate behaviors in the games.”

The lawyer Florida continued, “you can try this kind of massacres in simulators that are called video games and may, therefore, are more competent in what we are doing.”

Thompson finger is not the only country which aims at video games as fuel for NIU tragedy. In their version of history, the New York Post the murderer linked to their habit of playing Counter Strike while studying sociology at the University of Northern Illinois in 2003 and 2004.

“He played a lot of video games, especially Counter Strike, really strong,” said Ben dormitory mate Woloszyn, 24.

Omitted in the history of New York Post, however, is that Counter Strike is a game played by many other students at school. The Northwest Herald wrote, “often Kazmierczak play the game Counter Strike, a first-person shooting game, the room said, but hastened to add that the game was nothing unusual in the dormitory rooms.”

The Herald touched on other possible issues, as Kazmierczak time of hospitalization in a psychiatric rehabilitation center, and communicated the suspension of its anti-depressant medication several weeks before the shooting.
