Doubting my sanity
Did anyone hear about this kid in Thailand? He stabbed a taxi driver and stole the cab, and the driver bled to death in the backseat. Why did he do it? He claims he did it to see if it was as easy as it is in GTA4.
This line from the article is deeply troubling:
"Police said the youth, an obsessive player of "Grand Theft Auto", showed no sign of mental problems during questioning and had confessed to committing the crime because of the game."
Wait, what? Violently murdering a man and stealing his car isn't a sign of mental problems, even when you blame it on a game? Is that shit normal now?
So am I the one who's insane? I mean, I've never even thought about killing another person or stealing a car. And I play tons of violent games. From Halo to GTA to Doom. Do I need to go out and kill some people so I don't get thrown in a lunatic asylum?
Am I alone in my insanity? How many people have you guys murdered?
