[News] Can't people at least pick NEWER games to emulate when they kill people?

They continued on with the harassment because they thought she was "faking it".

I can definitely see how easy it was for a couple of older teenagers to destroy the frail body of a 7-year -old little girl, especially while they were intoxicated.

How would you feel if you killed your own little [half] sister?

The saddest part is that she was a very attractive female before she ruined her life by (accidentally?) killing her sister. Very pretty, especially the way her tears light up her eyes.

For your sake, I hope you're merely trolling here, because damn.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Weren't you the one who posted the article to begin with? Did you forget to read it or something?

How ya doing, buddy?

I don't think it's particularly that it's being blamed on a game that anyone cares about. But rather the fact that they're blaming it on something/anything that's not the teenagers who are the ones responsible. Heck I could see them getting a lighter sentence because "a video game made them do it". Which would be a load of crap don't you think?

No, these teenagers are the ones fully responsible for this terrible incident and people need to quit blaming outside sources for other people's stupidity.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

So they are too drunk to notice they are killing the girl but can crack a freaking egg in her mouth and wait 15 minutes because they are afraid of the police? I don't know what the hell is wrong with those young adults but it wasn't Mortal Combat that had anything to do with it. Me and all the kids around my neighborhood used to play Mortal Combat outside all the time just after it came out. Like 6 or more of us all taking turns fighting one on one. We'd get a few bruises and scraps now and then but we had a great time.

I was speaking idiomatically.

It looks like they're trying to pull a Scream 2 on us. Just like how the killer(s?) in that movie were going to blame horror movies for their actions, these two are apparently blaming Mortal Kombat for their actions.

These two are fucked up in the head to even do this shit in the first place.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Yes, because there's absolutely no difference between a fictional character and a real human being.

Completely agree. I don't think the media is blaming games for this one. I just would hate to see people here angered about video game bashing rather than what actually happened.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

The girls weren't drunk, people. Nothing I've read suggests that, anyway.

Most amazing jew boots

You did read the story right? You do know that one of the accused is a guy, right?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

There is a guy, yes. However, he and his accomplice still haven't been said to be drunk, just the witness.

How ya doing, buddy?

haha oh my holy lord you are one stupid motherfucker

So, to elaborate:

The witness asked Roberts (the black dude being held partially responsible for the child's death) why they didn't stop attacking the little girl and he responded "I don't know; I was drunk."

So, to break this down further

Witness = Why didn't you stop?
Roberts = I don't know; I was drunk.

If you still don't understand please let me know so I can make fun of you for being completely fucking retarded.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

They put an egg in her mouth to see if she was messing with them... They're obviously fucking retarded to begin with. Blaming this on videogames is getting so old, but I'm preaching to the choir so whatev.

I was speaking idiomatically.

At least people aren't emulating old arcade games like Pac-Man. Cannibalism ftl... Stories like this have become their own cottage industry at this point; I don't see the point in posting them unless there's something really outrageous or new at work...

Game subtext or not, stupid people being fucking stupid always baffles me in the news. Because it's always a case of trying to figure out some related activity, rather than the person. That's too cut and dry right there, apparently.

FELIPE NO
