Fucking brilliant. I was about to say the same things...

At least find some more tasteful ways of communicating your thoughts. Rather than making a "fun" mockery of a school massacre through a low-budget video game.


so video games are not art?

Yes, they have guns. But it's generally not cops shooting up schools.

In the UK, though, I believe the cops are gun-less.

A video game includes aspects of art, but is considered a "game", moreso than a "peice of art", in my opinion.

"all bullets should cost $5000, if all bullets cost $5000 there would be no more innocent bystanders, they'd be like 'damn he must of done something he put $50,000 dollars worth of bullets in his ass', people would say 'man i would kill you.............if i could afford it..........im gunna get me a job......save me some money.........and then you're a dead man" -Chris Rock

Ban the handgun.

static-harmony 09.18.2006 04:48 PM

Don't ban guns, just put stricter regulations.

COps are idiotic people, who try and failed to oppress people.

A shooting in Canada?

but...isn't Canada 'perfect', 'safe', and 'civilized', unlike the USA?


it has to be a hoax, it can't be true. canada is the safest place in the world, people don't kill eachother in canada because they are better educated, have better healthcare, and are more polite people.

i refuse to believe anything bad happens in canada.

Haha, and if you've seen Bowling For Columbine, Micheal Moore tries to indicate that canada is safe with their guns. It really makes him look bad after this shooting

well he could still make a movie about the CIA being behind it... you know, to damage his credibility or something.
