Paul Helmke, president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, recently spoke about how the media is constantly blaming school shootings on video games.
Helmke was quick to point out that, while violent games are played all over the world, school shootings are only a common thing in America. He believes this is because America is one of the few Western country to have such lax gun laws ...

While critics of violent video games regularly seek to blame school shootings on games, an anti-gun violence activist notes that games are popular around the world while school shootings are largely a U.S. phenomenon.
