Where's the data on how many of the captured murderers knew of, let alone played those games?

A craze a bunch of us nerds went through was playing Diplomacy at lunchtime in the school library.
As far as I know none of us have gone on to actually invade France or Germany, annex Poland or wrest control of Greenland from the Danish.
Maybe you’re just hanging with the wrong people?
It is well known that Putin is a huge Axis & Allies fan; look where that got us. The oligarchs are hiding Risk from him, lest he decide that Madagascar is the key to global domination.

We all know that they are the type of people to play those games.
Step sister’s, the GF is too classy for that.

Good catch. I remember studying the faces in ice cubes, in alcohol ads back in the day.

Thanks I missed the decimal
Yes, it’s guns.7 deaths.
At least seven people are dead after a gunman opened fire at a Walmart supermarket in Chesapeake, in the US state of Virginia, officials say.
A man, believed to be the store manager, opened fire then turned the gun on himself, and is now dead.

The gunman opened fire on colleagues in a break room before turning the weapon on himself.www.bbc.com
Other countries like Switzerland have high gun owner ship.
I know people want it to be about guns. But is it?
Or is it something deeper in the culture that makes men go out and kill multiple strangers for no apparent reason. No one else does this with the frequency that it happens in the USA. So you can't blame video games either.
US Military conditioning within the culture maybe? A history of wiping out opposition? natives, strikers, students? etc. Stunted emotions? Lack of genuine respect for life? General immaturity?
I dunno.
Why Does the U.S. Have So Many Mass Shootings? Research Is Clear: Guns. (Published 2017)
Americans advance a lot of theories for why they have so many more gun deaths than other countries do. The answer is lying in plain sight.

Here's a piece of advice that I hope you take to heart before it's too late. Once the BR door closes, you do not want a classy GF. When it reopens, classy is great.

I played hella Diplomacy back when I was a kid. We played so much Diplomacy that we kept getting into this situation, cutting a supported support, and it wasn't clear from the rules whether you could do it or not. So we wrote the publisher, I think it was Avalon Hill at the time, and asked. They eventually wrote back and said they'd never thought about it but would add the rule that you could cut a supported support. You're welcome.
Trump didn't win the election, the GOP stole it for him.
The election was fixed by GOP operatives.
Starting in 2013 – just as the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act – a coterie of GOP operatives, under the direction of Kris Kobach, Kansas Secretary of State, created a system to purge millions of Americans of color from the voter rolls of GOP-controlled states.
The system, called Crosscheck, was finally shut down in December of 2019, when the ACLU took an airtight case to the supreme court, with experienced litigation.
We saw in 2016 Crosscheck elect a Republican Senate and as President, Donald Trump. The electoral putsch was aided by nine other methods of attacking the right to vote of Black, Latino and Asian-American voters, methods including “Caging,” “purging,” blocking legitimate registrations, and sending out voter registration cards that looked like junk mail in numerous states.
Voter suppression since 1988 when it became mathematically impossible for GOP to win, because of the higher percentage of women and minorities who vote. Voter suppression has put GOP in the White House since 1988. The only way Democrats win who typically don't show up in high percentages, is when enough of them register and show up to vote.
Voter suppression has been going on in the US since the 1800s, and nowhere more diligently then Ohio. That's for a reason, the US often follows Ohio's lead in national elections, being a key state in early election battles, polling and early primaries.

I'm often happily surprised with "classy" women.

Fuck you second amendment
yep...... These "mass killings" are little more than a blip in the stats, but it's all anyone can focus on.
