Another article where kids who kill are linked to FPS games like Counter-Strike. (although at least in this article kids say the same thing I do - we're not idiots and know the difference between video games and real life)

It's all a load of crap if you ask me - people looking to find someone to blame for their mistakes & problems. Maybe the parents should just admit that their kids are ****ing crazy, it doesn't have anything to do with what games they play. I remember hearing the same crap when I was growing up, D&D would cause me to become mentally unstable & I would start killing everyone around me because I couldn't tell the difference between a game and reality.
Guess what, I kept playing D&D when I was younger and I never killed anyone in a real life. I've played CS & HL for 5+ years, still haven't killed anyone. Heck, those games may of saved me from killing people - much more productive to take out my aggression in a video game than to go postal and show up at the office with a Mac 10.
Kids that "go postal" are crazy already, it's not the game's fault.
