That just makes me sick. I guess we will never understand what went through their minds, may be they just can’t think.

I was on digg.com 2 minutes ago and reached this article from the first page : Two Teens Kill 7-Year-Old Girl with Supposed Mortal Kombat Moves.

Two teens, a girl and her boyfriend killed the 7 year old sister of one of them. Their defense : they imitate Mortal Kombat moves. How mad is that ? It can be real or it can be just lies, this is just mad.

I like video games, few years ago I played a lot to it, not really now, but I know the violence of some. My point of view : VIDEO GAMES DON’T CREATE VIOLENT OR STUPID PEOPLE.

I played all the Doom games, I played all the GTA, I played Street Fighters and Mortal Kombat, I played a lot of games where people get killed, that never made me a murderer. I never woke up with a blood thirst too.

Some people think Rockstar Games (creator of GTA) influence kids to become gangsters or murderers. Hey, when you buy a video game, the gun is not offered in the box as an additional gift.

It’s bad that they had to claim they were imitating some Mortal Kombat tricks, this will just add some bad reputation to the video games and their influence.

From the article we can guess the poor little girl has been hit more than once. The teens may only be 16 or 17, don’t tell me they are not responsible from what they’ve done. None of them even stop the other one from slamming a child. None of the two of them thought they were doing something dangerous.

If you think movies or video games are the problem, then you have a problem.

I hate that kind of story. We’re in the 21st century.
