here we go
Douchebag on MSNBC Hardball blaming Counterstrike
the video game. How does moving a mouse help you
aim a real gun? Yet this idiot is saying that it "prepared"
him for the rampage. So ridiculous.

1. He's such a dumbass
The WP didn't even report he played it at ALL at Va Tech, only back in high school. This is one of the dumbest analysts I've ever seen in my life.

Even Tweety was pressing him on it. He was so sure
of his points yet never once provided any proof that
the killer even played the damn game since high school.
I wish someone would just scream at these people that
moving your mouse around in a game doesn't actually
teach you to fire a real firearm.

He's an anti-game crusader from way back. No suprise to see him jumping on the bandwagon.
