True story:

I started hang gliding because Gerry Lopez dropped in on me at Pipeline. When I realized that, more often than not, I paddled in more pissed off than when I paddled out, it was time to do something else.

Gerry not Gary....sorry haven't got my glasses on lol.

I still have no idea what you are talking about......and why you replied to me.....you are not being clear enough.

Maybe it is ATS that is making people shoot people....it can be rather infuriating when people on here are so vague......feels like banging your head on a brick wall sometimes lol.

The idea was that surfing became no fun because of the aggressive nature of some of the surfers.

I found something else to do and it did not involve killing people.

Video games don't kill people, but they make a great excuse to not look at things that do.

Maybe the young gamers end up with mental problems after getting so angry for so long...they then end up on pharmaceutical drugs that alter the mind further.

I know a lot of people who have the tv on constantly when young children are around and the kids just stare a it. Getting their attention is hard and parents shout at the children to get their attention.....and the eyes of the child go toward the parent and then their attention goes back to the tv. I swear that it causes ADHD.

Yes...there are many reasons why there seems to be more aggression about. I don't think it is an accident....I think it's part of the agenda.

Or maybe some of them start out that way. Maybe they were mean to small animals, as well.

I don't believe that children are born that way.
Take a look at Charles Mansons childhood.............he says he was a throw away child. Children need to know love as they grow and I don't think parents have enough time for children anymore. Life is so fast nowadays.
Ted Bundy in his last interview warned about the dangers of porn.

I don't pay much attention to the excuses of psychopaths.

Well if no one studies why a psychopath does what a psychopath does then there is a chance that society is breading them.
It is so easy to simply blame the individual....but the individual does not grow in isolation.

And a very, very small number end up killing people. No matter their upbringing.

Weird.

Unless they play too many video games, of course.

They are more likely to kill their selves instead.

I think these school shootings could be MK Ultra .......it could be a ploy to take the guns away from the people.

Children are being exposed to too much sex and violence. Something needs to be done.

I agree.
And the mixing of sex with violence is very disturbing.
Have a look to see what it is like growing up in a pornified culture in this Ted Talk.

Children as young as 12 are looking on line because they are curious about sex (as we all were at that age...but we had a dictionary in the house only)....and what they are presented with is horrifying........violence toward people being sold as sex.
They don't want to do those things but it excites them and repulses them at the same time....it has a really bad effect on their mentality....shame.

They have a name for the problems that come from things like this, depersonalization and derealization disorders. Those two disorders are experienced by many military people as they try to go back to society.

The article addresses aggression, not killing people. Now, when kids get aggressive, they go pick on others at school. The kids they pick on probably have more chance of getting messed up and doing a mass shooting because of the rudeness of other kids to them. Cause and effect, a kid can only take so much before snapping. It takes me a long time to get mad, but you do not want to get me mad.
