Blame Canada!
May 23 '00
Lately Video Games are getting a bunch of rap for the shootings that have been happening in schools. Why is this? They claim its because of the realistic shooting and blood that comes out of they guy when you blow his head off. They say it desensitizes kids to violence and teaches them that it's ok to shoot things and teaches them how to aim and shoot accurately. If we go by these premises then such children's toys like Super Soakers and Ninja Turtles should get equal blame also. TV shows like Spiderman and Pokemon should be canceled also because there is fighting in them. Why don't we just do what they did on South Park and Blame Canada?
Some scientists did some research on kids TV shows and violent behavior. Surprisingly they found that when kids are left alone for a while with no supervision and the TV on they will get bored, wrestle and screw around. Isn't that amazing? I could have told you that. I've known that for years. Kids have short attention spans and can't sit still for long periods of time by themselves. Ask any parent and they'll tell you the same thing. As for the fighting its just kids playing around like they always do.
The Super soaker teaches kids to shoot each other with realistic gun like weapons. They run around and shoot each other outside and learn how to dodge shots and how to improve their accuracy. Ninja Turtles are the cheerleaders for violence because they live on the streets and beat people up all the time. Packmen not only teaches kids to fight each other it teaches them to fight with animals. It shows the Packmen getting regenerated in minutes.
All these claims are just a way for the parents of the kids to pawn the blame off on someone else because they don't have the guts to take the blame on their selves. We can't blame them for trying to pawn it off on someone else because it's the American way. I'm sending this message to all the parents that see nothing wrong with letting their kids play with explosives and carry guns with them. What is your problem? Your child is going down the wrong track and its up to you to stop them. We don't need another Columbine so next time your child asks if you will go buy them some gunpowder and wicks, Say no please because we can't have children going around killing children when ever they have a bad day.
