Trump like the asshole he is, is trying to "fix" mental illness in the most barbaric way possible... All because he thinks all people with mental illnesses are "violent sickos"... He doesn't even care if they don't commit crimes... He wants to lock them all up in mental institutions... Just because Nikolas Cruz had a mental illness and was a violent person, doesn't mean other people with mental illnesses are violent people, but he doesn't care. He refuses to call them people. He even basically said "they are barely people, they are all sickos! We need to get them out of our communities! We need a place to put sickos like this, even if they don't commit crimes... We need to re-open mental institutions"
The way people in the NRA and GOP are talking about people with mental illnesses is disgusting... They are being labeled "Crazy" people and "sickos" by people in the NRA and GOP. It's totally untrue... Most people with mental illnesses don't even hurt people yet we are being scapegoated for a crime we didn't do... He is calling us all future school shooters. First I see people who support GOP saying all gamers are future school shooters and now I see this....
We need PROPER treatment of mental illnesses, not being locked up into institutions where abuse runs rampant. Because that's what happened in mental institutions... The horrible abuse of people with schizophrenia and bipolar disorders is what got them shut down in the first place. Now he wants to re open them... This disgusts me.. I have a mental illness, Autism. I want to fight this but I cannot do it alone... I talked to my senator.. But that won't be enough...
I know gamers aren't too friendly with people with Autism, but I need your help... If you have any decency, get your representatives to oppose this now... It's bad... This does not need to happen... Get some REAL flack going against this if they (The GOP) Plan to actually implement this... It already has some flack now but it's limited to people in the medical community. We need policy makers saying his idea is terrible... We need THEM to oppose this! It would be a good idea to write your Rep before it's too late...
We can't let this happen... This is the worst thing he has ever done... Recommend abusive practises for people with mental illnesses... It's sick...

Trump may be trying to use botnets that pretend to be Conservatives to force Politicians to call for Confiscation of your violent games...
Back when this moral panic started I started equating posts on twitter attacking violent games to botnets that groups like hamilton_68 said amplified hashtags like #Parkland, #Guncontrol, #Guncontrolnow, and #ParklandStrong. I kept on noticing posters saying the same exact thing multiple times on twitter over several days... I think their bots.... But I don't know for sure... But if Russia Did Collude with Trump to get him elected, maybe he has something to do with these bots...
Bots like this could be responsible for the moral panic surrounding violent games after the Parkland Shooting. ----------------
Notice the copy and pasted messages and the tweets to politicians that seem to look like normal people but aren't because the message is copy and pasted and can't be a person due to that?
Why would a person post the same exact messages over and over again to multiple people?
Only a bot would do that.
Well... It got worse today... I saw these tweets tonight and last night...
I don't know if these are bots but the first of the last 2 is very suspicious because it tweets to a senator... A senator that is a Democrat in California... Why are they calling for Confiscation of all violent games? Because they think all gamers are school shooters. You know who else thought that? One of the Hack Psychologists who went on talk shows saying games are training tools for mass murder. The same hack psychologist also said that all gamers deserve the death penalty.
Trump has already called for regulation on violent games... It's only matter of time before he tries to ban them or confiscate them to all people... If his damn fans want it, he's dumb enough to do just that! And they do....
This is BAD... If the GOP really wants to confiscate violent games from innocent gamers like us we need to fight it... Go to this blog post and talk to your senators to try to get them to oppose video game legislation and demand action if Trump demands confiscation of your video games!

Conservative assholes are now trashing gamers after the Parkland School Shooting and saying gamers need to be disciplined.
Time for some controversial posts. This is the first out of 2. This one attacks Conservatives and Conservative politicians for their stupid, unfounded attack on violent games and "lack of discipline" after the school shooting at Parkland, FLA. It also attacks them for being gamer haters, for their constant accusations that say gamers are psychopaths, monsters, school shooters, etc.
Following the Moral Panic surrounding video game violence on Twitter kept on revealing disgusting images surrounding stereotypical portrayal of gamers on twitter. They were either posted by bots or trump supporters, but I think bots did a lot of this stuff to try to make gamers become a "cause" of school shootings that they wanted regulated by the GOP. Hence for their call of discipline, like everyone needs boot camp treatment!
I found these two disgusting images floating around on twitter that attacked gamers directly. One is a political cartoon and it's bad and makes gamers look like psychopaths that scream "KILL THEM ALL!" while playing video games... Even though NO gamer has ever done that to my knowledge. I know I haven't and none have done that in LP's so I know this is BS....
But that's not the worst of the bunch. Today I found this post which is even worse... Gamers will hate this one...
Whoever this guy is he is a trump fan and a gamer hater and his picture of a gamer makes the gamer look like a complete monster. He is clearly calling out people defending video games saying they are all monsters and are being "brainwashed" by games... Which is BS because games can't brainwash, but the ironic thing is that people like this are brainwashed already..
He is a disgusting person and I want people to report this guy on twitter for hate speech... He is clearly trying to make all gamers look like school shooters here... I find this disgusting so I want to report this guy But I need to call out tons of idiots on the Internet so I really don't want to be shut down because of that... So all gamers reading this should report this guy if you are on twitter..
He is a fucking asshole...
Speaking of assholes, notice how tons of people/bots started to whine about how how "lack of discipline" causes school shootings?
Typically when you hear people whine about how kids aren't "disciplined enough these days", it comes primarily from Militarized brainwashed veterans. Veterans who want boot camp shoved down our throat, because we aren't "disciplined enough", and we deserve to be put in boot camp because that apparently clears up "all of the ADHD and Autism these undisciplined punks have". Yes that's right, ADHD and Autism are not real diseases to them, they are something that's fake and only Discipline can fix it. By Discipline I fear they want MILITARY Discipline and I fear that may be a punishment for being a gamer in the future thanks to all the assholes who blindly believe that all gamers are school shooters. You know what I think causes school shootings? Their fucking sick version of Discipline. It's happening in these camps, schools for autistic kids, and worse... The mother of Nikolas Cruz was regularly beating him and he was Autistic and they sent him to a school for Autistic kids, and I saw someone from that school brag about their services... I know for a fact that Autistic schools use Military Discipline. I can tell by ads for "total transformation" that this shit is being used on kids... They even brag in "total transformation" that they use "commands" to discipline people. But to do that they need to break kids down and maybe even sexually abuse them there to make them "respond" to the commands. Breaking down involves Harassment, Trauma, Sleep deprivation, tons of exhausting exercises, all necessary to raise suggestion...
All of this is on a tangent but It is important because GOP voters are whining about "lack of discipline" in kids and at least one person saying that is the cause of school shootings was a bot.
Bots are something I will get into in the next post.... and I will also get into the recent surge of calls or Confiscation of violent games from all households in the US by Conservative trashfucks...

GOP Supporters trying to hijack #parklandstudentsspeak to try to make them recommend Confiscation of violent games to lawmakers.
What I am about to talk about really, really pisses me off. As you may or may not know, the Parkland School Shooting survivors rallied in Washington to try to stop gun violence. It didn't really work, because the NRA funded politicians they talked too all said guns aren't the problem. The Students used a hashtag #parklandstudentsspeak to rally people support them I guess... But this act, doing a hashtag campaign only lead to calls for video game censorship by complete morons...
And I mean hundreds of morons this time, all hellbent on getting video games banned, confiscated, or destroyed. I don't like this one bit. I am a 38 year old Gamer. I own lots of violent games. I used to play for 15-16 hours a day, from age 13 to now. I no longer do. But I still play them... I am perfectly fine. Video games have not turned my into a fucking lunatic that wants to kill in real life. I don't like idiots from right wing crowds advocating for video game censorship by the hundreds. I DON'T WANT MY GAMES CONFISCATED! I am taking a stand, to prevent just that.
I feel powerless to stop this if one of the students LIKES this horrible idea of confiscating video games from everyone, all of the 11 million gamers worldwide that haven't killed people. I've decided to write my senator and I want other gamers to do the same, if they try this sly tactic of trying to confiscate violent games from people. But before I talk about that I wanted to provide proof of all the idiots on twitter trying to get these kids to say games are the problem....
Ok Gamers, I need your help right now. I don't know if The GOP wants to confiscate games from everyone but If they do, I fear there will be nothing to stop them this time.
A) GOP is attacking games like crazy after this shooting, Mast, Bevin, and some others as well...
B) They have control over the entire House of Representatives and the Senate as well. There are too many people in the GOP to prevent this from not getting through.. They will all agree it's a great idea because Bevin will convince them Gamers are all school shooters in the making.
C) The new Chief Justice is a conservative. If the law gets to the supreme court, there will be NO Guarantee it will be found unconstitutional. The last time the Supreme court got involved with the gaming industry (Brown VS EMA), the justices said later that They didn't think they did the right thing...
You guys need to talk to your Democrat senators NOW... To AT LEAST tell them to fight any GOP bill that would ban violent games to adults or confiscate them from all people... Gamers we need to fight this. HARD. I will do my part,. But you must help me on this... I can't do it alone. One senator opposed to confiscating violent games isn't enough! There needs to be a shit ton of angry Democrats fighting this shit... Send THIS message...
"Dear Senator "insert name here"
I am your constituent
I fear GOP may try to regulate violent games after the Parkland shooting. There are angry Trumpsters online that are trying to get the kids who are marching to washington for gun control to attack violent games rather than guns. There are literally hundreds of people doing this. Some want video games confiscated from all people in the country, over the supposed link to violence found in ultra-violent games...
There are lots of studies that have proven recently that video games don't cause violence. Searching online will show these studies. There have been 18 mass murders this year, but only the latest one has any link to video games. Only Columbine and newtown have links to violent game playing shooters... There are 11 million gamers worldwide. only 4 out of 11 million have killed people. That is a tiny percentage, too tiny to warrent confiscation of violent games to everyone in the USA.
You will hear lots of nonsense spread about violent games from the GOP. They will try to tell you other killers killed because of games, but a lot of that is nonsense. They will try to tell you studies prove violent games make people violent. But in reality no study has ever proven that. Many studies prove games cause aggression, but studies have proven that aggression comes from the frustration of playing video games, not the violent content.
The people who attack violent games don't like them. Especially Matt Bevin. He questioned why they need to even exist, period. The GOP and NRA will try to attack games. I hope you can make the right decision on this. If they call for a ban to children only. That's one thing. But to adults too... That's unconstitutional. And so should be this confiscation angle..."
I hope this works gamers, but I need your help...
EDIT : IT'S ALREADY HAPPENING PEOPLE!

(Off Topic) Boot Camp like Treatment is the real cause of The Parkland School Shooting.
Ok.... I have heard all the theories why school shootings happen. A lot sound like complete crap like
A) Violent video games make them kill people!
B) It's The Easy access to guns!
C) Anti-depressants and Psychotropic Medicine
D) Mental Illness
E) Bad Parents
F) Bad Law Enforcement
G) And my own theory that I thought up while looking into cases : Terrorism
I am a firm believer that every shooting has it's own reason for happening...
Columbine = Terrorism
Virginia Tech and Newtown = Mental Illnesses and the fact Lanza's mother got Adam into Guns at a young age.
Many Other Shootings = Terrorism
(including the UCC Shooting, the Aurora Shooting, etc)
You can't take all these shootings and find a band aid for them that will stop shootings from happening. That's what people, including Politicians are trying to do. Each one has their own reason for happening!
After studying the Killer in this shooting I think I have a possible reason for this shooting... I read the following article and one things stands out about it (and that's not the fact he played video games, I still don't think video games are a factor!)... The Fact that he was abused by his mother stands out like a sore thumb....
www.miamiherald DOT com/news/local/community/broward/article200754714.html
(just change the DOT to a .)
"Gold said Lynda Cruz was strict with her sons, and was not averse to striking them when they misbehaved. At least one time, DCF investigated her for possibly abusing the boys and inadequately supervising them. The case was closed."
I think this shooter was abused growing up... I think he went through so called "military discipline" aka BOOT CAMP TREATMENT... Now I have no proof, but if she hit him it's likely she verbally abused him as well.. But think about it... Which of the following things is most likely going to make a kid go psycho?
A) Playing a lot of violent games (no way, violent games don't make people go psycho)
B) Taking Anti-psychotic Medications (No this won't do it but it could fix the real problem)
or
C) Being abused like in boot camp (Cha-Ching! Imagine being verbally abused all day long by parents acting like Drill Instructors in Boot Camp while forced to not move at all to get the kid to OBEY ORDERS...)
Which do you think will make kids go psycho and kill 17 kids in a school...
I think C is most likely... I've heard of tons of fucking assholes who have military backgrounds saying they abuse their sons and daughters like in boot camp. Most of this was found while searching for people who wanted to re-institute the draft due to the "lack of discipline of kids these days". They would then say "there should be mandatory military service so these damn undisciplined ADHD kids get proper discipline!". One fucking asshole bragged about he he sleep deprived his kids to make them "follow his orders" like in boot camp. Bet he also treated them like shit, verbally abused them with screaming tones like a drill instructor and beat them up too.!
Anyway this fucking Brainwashing is the real problem. I see dozens of posts on twitter saying school shootings are caused by "lack of discipline". Now discipline does NOT mean punishment for these kids of people. It means boot camp like treatment.
Which involves.
1) An Instructor screaming at recruits to harass them and make them feel uncomfortable 24/7
2) Sleep Deprivation caused by 2 hours of sleep only (4 am to 6 am) THATS IT.
3) Exhaustion done by constant brutal exercise.
THESE people want more of the same for more people. Don't be fooled. And these people are all over twitter... And Some of these people found by me are bots as well...
(The Guy called Deplorable_Me) Seems to be a bot. Notice the copy and pasted message... Sounds like a default message for bots)...
Overall this is a really scary situation. Sorry I had to go off topic but I really think this is the real reason the shooting happened... I think it's MUCH more likely than psychotropic medications, violent video games or mental illnesses... This "Discipline" leads to suicide and mental illnesses... It just does. Who would want to live in a household/school that does this to children?

Did Russian Bots start the Parkland Shooting anti-video games moral panic?
I read an article online talking about how hashtags surrounding the Parkland School Shooting on twitter got amplified by Russian bots. They pretended to be liberals attacking the NRA and conservatives defending guns. What does this have to do with video game violence? I was checking the same hashtags looking for posters attacking video games after the shooting the night before I read this article. I saw a LOT of people attack video games, several hundred. I became suspicious, because after the previous mass shooting that I covered (the Las Vegas Shooting) there was not nearly as many people targeting games on twitter. So I always wondered if Russian bots were doing anti-gaming attacks as well...
I've touched upon the idea that a moral panic of this size was orchestrated by Russian bots before people but now, I think I have proof. I saw some idiot posting video game bashing stuff that didn't quite make sense. I saw that he was trying to say video games violence is correlated to real life violence but could not quite make sense.... Well fastforward to tonight, and I notice the same poster posts THE SAME EXACT MESSAGE to someone else that he posted before, using the same hashtag as well..
Ok... Why the blue hell would someone post the exact same message twice? Why would they do that. People don't act like that. They type what they feel... If he was really a person he would be saying a different sentence, but this guy said the same exact thing he said before... Here is a screenshot for proof...
Ok... I got that and I was lucky to be able to track this down... I think this guy is a bot. He says a badly written message when posting on twitter and it's filled with grammar problems like "Extremely More Violent" and whatever.... Why would you post the same message copy and paste like that? So I think this is proof that bots may have contributed to this moral panic at the very least..
I don't know if this guy is a Russian bot though... That is up for debate. All I know is that there have been tons of people bashing games on twitter since the shooting. And at least 1 other copy and pasted a message multiple times several days apart to try to get it out there multiple times.. Finding this other person is very hard for me to do so you just have to trust me on this...
IF this is true, this is bad... It possibly points at the GOP for trying to use their Russian Allies to try to "stir the pot" in favor of video game legislation. Right now very few people outside of the conservative world blame video games for shootings... But if they can make more people believe that BS than they might have a chance to pass any legislation they start after the shooting... I think I caught them in the act...
People who are looking for Russian bots should really look for the following searches on twitter to try to find people who do this kind of thing...

#MarchForOurLives Games

Keep looking through these searches and you will eventually find people posting the same messages over and over again... I think they are bots but I have no proof... If they are this will be a new thing for moral panics, bot started moral panics... It's bad and I think something needs to be done. If you see people posting repeated messages that attack video games and use the hashtags listed above, report them to twitter. We need to fight this...
EDIT : I think I found another bot...
Proof is in this image:
EDIT : One more bot found... This one is trying to get media to attack games by tweeting to them...
I've touched upon the idea that a moral panic of this size was orchestrated by Russian bots before people but now, I think I have proof. I saw some idiot posting video game bashing stuff that didn't quite make sense. I saw that he was trying to say video games violence is correlated to real life violence but could not quite make sense.... Well fastforward to tonight, and I notice the same poster posts THE SAME EXACT MESSAGE to someone else that he posted before, using the same hashtag as well..
Ok... Why the blue hell would someone post the exact same message twice? Why would they do that. People don't act like that. They type what they feel... If he was really a person he would be saying a different sentence, but this guy said the same exact thing he said before... Here is a screenshot for proof...
I don't know if this guy is a Russian bot though... That is up for debate. All I know is that there have been tons of people bashing games on twitter since the shooting. And at least 1 other copy and pasted a message multiple times several days apart to try to get it out there multiple times.. Finding this other person is very hard for me to do so you just have to trust me on this...
IF this is true, this is bad... It possibly points at the GOP for trying to use their Russian Allies to try to "stir the pot" in favor of video game legislation. Right now very few people outside of the conservative world blame video games for shootings... But if they can make more people believe that BS than they might have a chance to pass any legislation they start after the shooting... I think I caught them in the act...
People who are looking for Russian bots should really look for the following searches on twitter to try to find people who do this kind of thing...

A Political Cartoonist is spreading the stupid stereotype that all gamers are violent sickos.... FIGHT This gamers!
While doing anti-gaming moral panic searches on twitter, during the Parkland shooting anti-gaming moral panic, I kept running into stupid people posting this DUMB image on twitter...
This image frankly pisses me off... And it should piss off every damn gamer out there... It makes all gamers look like violent sickos who scream out "KILL THEM ALL!" while playing violent games. I can tell you now that I have never done that... Not in all my years of gaming with FPS and RPG games. Hell I started at the age of 13, and even then I didn't scream kill them all over and over again. And I doubt real gamers do that shit. I know of no one who has said that crap in a gaming situation while playing around me, or in an LP (and I've watched tons of LP's so I know). But that doesn't stop stupid idiots on twitter from spreading this crap. It got posted over and over again by idiots hijacking gun control hashtags... All of these idiots are christian conservatives or Trump Supporters, or possibly Russian Bots (more on that later). Here are their stupid posts...
I literally saw it 3 times tonight on twitter... It got me pissed off so much that I decided to write this. I googled the image on the internet and tracked down it's stupid source.... Turns out it's from a political cartoon by some guy named Rob Smith JR. He must be a zealot because only a zealot thinks all gamers scream out "KILL THEM ALL!" while playing. You know who actually did that? School shooters.. Eric Harris did... It's all over text files for his Doom Wads. The Parkland shooter also said crap like that. Both are violent psychopaths. So only violent psychopaths actually scream out "KILL THEM ALL!" while playing violent games... So Robb Smith JR is obviously trying to stereotype 11 million gamers as violent sociopaths after a shooting that had NOTHING to do with games...
And so is every fucking religious zealot fuckhead who reposts this shit. I've been blocking all of them and calling them out on twitter. Other Gamers need to step up and do the same.... These morons won't quit till they learn that this shit is harmful to an identity! Yes that's right, gamers are an identity. Gamers are not Violent Psychopaths! That's fucking stupid to say gamers are that. Only 2-3 gamers actually killed people in mass shootings. Those 2-3 were either Terrorists or violent psychopaths. Most gamers don't go around killing real people. The ones that do have OTHER ISSUES! There is AT LEAST 11 million gamers worldwide. How many are violent psychopaths...Very few... So Stop doing this shit Rob Smith, it's bad. We've been fighting this shit for years. Hack Psychologists have been saying gamers are Violent Psychopaths for ages. They also said games break down the inhibition to kill, gamers were (fictitiously) threatening their lives and other BS. Every time someone respreads a lie like this in any form, It pisses me off... You gamers need to FIGHT this!
Now the russian bot angle. I saw a post on the internet talking about Russian bots "amplifying" school shooting hashtags like #guncontrolnow, #parklandstrong and others. They pretended to be both Conservatives and Liberals... When pretending to be Conservatives they kept on saying "Guns aren't the issue, <insert issue> is!" (that insert issue seems to be violence in entertainment). When pretending to be Liberals they said crap like "NRA Blood is on your hands" and crap like that. Around the same time I started noticing some of these posts with the hashtags started to attack violent games. Pretty soon it was hundreds of tweets All demeaning violent games and saying Guns aren't the issue. I don't know if these people posting these cartoons are Russian bots, bot one guy posting video game bashing crap was exposed as a russian bot by someone else. Guess what he made himself look like? A Trump Supporter. Now whether this guy was really a Russian Bot I don't know... But IF Russian bots are behind the video game violence crap, this will be bad. It will mark the first time Bots/hackers started a moral panic. I don't know about that, but people need to fight this crap like crazy now. I am doing my part. You need to do you're part gamers... It's critical. This could be a BIG moral Panic.... Try to fight it! In some way... I've seen a lot less posts saying video games don't cause violence than I would have hoped. Only 15-20 at most. I suggest you all use the hashtag #videogamesdontcauseviolence in your tweets along side any (or all) of the following hashtags...
