The video game excuse doesn’t work so well when huge swathes of the adult population have played or do play video games. They’re not scary and confusing and alien to most Americans any more. We remember how it felt as kids when they tried to blame Columbine on our harmless entertainment, then did nothing to prevent similar massacres from happening again, and again, and again, and again, and it’s the same goddamn people still trying to peddle their ancient scapegoats now. These useless fossils need to go back in the dirt where they belong.
