This incident is a great example for media inaccuracy, especially for early reporting. On various sources, there were 1 dead, 4 dead, 0 dead; one shooter, 3 or 4 shooters; 12 injured, 19 injured, 20 injured; gunman was shot down by police, gunman shot himself; he used an AK-47, Ruger 10/22, various guns. Gunman listened to "Megadeath" (sic), played "first-person shooter game Postal (sic)", listened to "death metal" or "black metal" (yeah, right). I love journalists who write about things they don't know anything about.

Well, in this case, it was a 25 year old man. Sure, when you look at his
VampireFreaks profile, he acted like a dumb angsty teenager, but at his age we're way past blaming the parents, haha.
Not every shithead in the world had bad parents. Some people are gonna end up as shitheads no matter what, it seems. This guy was a loser. He couldn't even get murder "right", he only managed to kill one person (I mean, that's a good thing, but it's kind of pathetic).

Well, we have 18+ movies, but with very very few exceptions (the only one that come to my mind at the moment is Natural Born Killers) they're all for adult movies. Hell, I bought the Rome DVD boxset recently and it was rated R for US, 17+ (I think) for Canada, and 14+ for Québec.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
