If you don't think that first person shooters are a factor
No one said it was the sole or even main cause. You made that part up in your head.

you sure picked the most fricked up way possible to voice that opinion.

No, it wouldn’t.

What percentage of those who respond negatively to being painted, well, negatively do you believe are truly as presented by the paper?
Less than 100% and greater than 0%. It is an interesting study, but damn if most in this thread didn’t get offended and start in on the name calling.
I found it interesting, I wanted to discuss it. Did I know it would piss some like Bengal off? Sure, but those are the fools that don’t deserve to be considered anyhow. I want to have the conversation with people at least willing to read the study and objectively say there is probably something there, because there is.

They are an ultimate outlet of the true issue in our country, and developed countries as a whole, but I don’t think removing them would be overly beneficial long term.
The true issue, which is seen in statistical data, is the significant increase in depression, mental illness, and suicidal tendencies.

“being afraid of the world we live in”
Yet the OP is the one advocating removing guns from society until we determine who should be allowed to have them.
And why? He's afraid of the world he lives in..

Yeah, wanting to confiscate every American's gun is now called evaluation.

It appears there are pros and cons to that argument. You were deriding him for that position, so I Googled it. Your derision had me thinking it was universally discredited.
Turns out there are loads of studies showing both.

So is stockpiling guns for the impending crash of society and failing of America that gets so readily discussed around here. How many threads have we had asking if we should just let America fail and start over and all that nonsense in the past several months or weeks? A lot of people, and more than a few around here, believe exactly that.

Correct, it's emotional and irrational.
Now, temporarily taking guns away from people who are legitimately deemed a thread is a good starting point but he jumped to total confiscation.

Go read the article and look up the studies.
