Fox News Legal Analyst links Dark Souls to "Craiglist Killer"

Yes everyone it's 2014. The 2nd month into the new year and here we go again into the world of ignorance and scapegoats.

Fox News Legal Analyst Peter Johnson Jr. when discussing the arrest of the dubbed "Craigslist Killer" on Wednesday  this week was listing factors as to what could have made her  go on this rampage.

He goes on to list the factors as to what may have been the thing to turn her into a killer.

Dark Souls was the first thing listed as to what may have made her into a murderer.

He stated: "We're talking about a girl at age 13,14,15, after being part of one murder, going on and completing 20-something murders," he goes on saying   "We do know that has an affinity for the fantasy game called Dark Souls, which is a very dark, death laden video game that's on Playstation and other kinds of video type things where there's a lot of killing involved."

The thing is, he says this BEFORE saying "We do know she said that she was abused as a child, she did say that she had an abortion as a result of an unwanted pregnancy."

Does anyone else find a problem with that?

Here's the video with more information on the arrest of the killer

 I love the fact that he said "video type things" because that absolutely sounds like someone who does not understand what video games are let alone knowing what a video game console is.

I don't like the fact that once again video games are being added to the list of reasons which causes someone to become a mass murderer.

It's the 21st century, can we please stop blaming things we don't understand as the causes of the things such as murder?

Murder has been something going on WAY before video games existed.

Again, video games do not turn you into a murderer. If you're worried about your children being exposed to excessively violent video games. Don't buy the games for your kids.

We keep perpetuating this strange and absolutely illogical idea that if you play a violent video game then you yourself will become a violent person.

I've played games where you chop someone in half with a chainsaw bayonet. I have played games where you dismember limbs off of reanimated corpses with the internal organs of the corpse out in plain sight.

I've played games where you can shoot heads off of creatures and other characters to see their eyes rolling around on the floor.

I have not gone on a mass killing/ shooting spree. I don't believe that I know I can use advanced weaponry simply because I used them in a video game.

I am a quiet and calm 20 year old college kid that listens to Nat King Cole as I walk to the bus stop to get to get to school.


This woman who committed these murders was psychologically disturbed. She had mental issues.

Enough with the scapegoats.

Call of Duty Black Ops 2 Weapon Guide:M-TAR Assault Rifle

Hello everyone, time for my first weapon guide of Black Ops 2. Today we're looking at the starting assault rifle, the M-TAR. History The Micro-Tar is a micro version of the TAR-21 rifle. It's designed to take advantage of a shorter barrel which means decreased recoil but increased accuracy. Designed for special fores units, it is capable of converting to different ammo variants such as the NATO standard 5.56 cartridge and the 9mm submachine gun round. It is also designed to be capable of attaching a Suppressor, as of 2009 a grenade launcher was being designed to attach to the M-TAR, the M-TAR can attach the M203PI grenade launcher. If you're a FPS veteran then you saw this weapon first in Battlefield 3 as part of the Close Quarters DLC, for COD veterans we saw this weapon's bigger brother, the TAR-21 in Modern Warfare 2. I'm warning you now, the M-TAR is not the TAR-21 we saw in Modern Warfare 2. Multiplayer Stats, Attachments and Performance In gam...

Retro Gazette Reviews:Batman Returns SNES Review

Hello everyone. Welcome to another one of my Retro Reviews. Today we're going to be looking at a personal favorite of mine from the Super Nintendo era. Batman Returns. Story Music If you can't tell all ready from the intro video above, the music to Batman Returns for the SNES sounds great and does a good job of recreating some of the songs we heard in the film. My personal favorite stage music is from Stage 7 when you enter Arctic World, The Liberation of Gotham track sounds amazing in 16 bit audio. It's strange to review the music in a video game but the audio stands out so much and does an amazing job, again of recreating the films' soundtrack. Presentation The graphics and detail of Batman Returns is very good and ironically is much more colorful than the Tim Burton film. Gotham City, although currently suffering from a clown riot looks fantastic and Konami yet again does a good job of recreating scenes from the film, you see all these backgro...

Weapon Profile The Ballista is known as the FN Ballista, a rifle designed by FN Herstal in Belgium, the rifle was designed to meet the reuirments of the Precision Sniper Rifle program for the US Army. The PSR program by the United States Special Operations Command to replace all current bolt-action sniper rifles in use by US special operations to instead have rifles chambered for .338 Magnum calibers, Lapua magnum and Norma magnum calibers.
