DOOM CAUSES KIDS TO SHOOT UP SCHOOLS!

No-one has disproved that yet.

No connection between video games and violence has ever been made. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jcom.12129/full

So, there's that.

Also, the most common "Doom caused kids to shoot up a school" was Columbine. And the shooters of Columbine did not in fact play Doom.

#rekt

uh yes they did http://doomwiki.org/wiki/Columbine_High_School_massacre#Doom_connection_and_the_Harris_levels

Woops, my bad. I must have been thinking of the sniper game.

Regardless, it doesn't mean shit.

No, it really doesn't. It's clear that Harris was a bonafide psychopath. If not for Doom, it'd have been something else. I've played his Doom levels; some of them are actually not bad (by late 90s standards anyway) but some of the sprite edits and the accompanying text files he wrote (all user-made Doom levels must have a text file accompanying them describing the level before being submitted to archives like /idgames) speak to something disturbing. Now, some kids grow out of that shit, but Harris clearly didn't.

That means precisely zilch. That numerous scientific, non-biased studies still cannot come up with a conclusive answer after decades of research as to whether or not video games can lead to violence says to me that the answer is probably "maybe a little but not enough that you'd notice and only in certain at-risk individuals who'd just be influenced by something else if not video games."

Google "trying to prove a negative."

DOOM did not cause teens to shoot up a school, if DOOM wished a school shot up he would see to it himself! Doom would ensure no survivors, and would wear a cloak not a trench coat!

DOOM approves of public education. Schools in Latveria are wired with the best holographic technology and DOOM-approved teachers. Under DOOM's benevolent guidance, Latveria leads the world in nuclear physics, astronomy, and demonology.

With you typing all in caps, I thought you were talking about Dr. Doom and was a little confused.

Well, comics books have been used as a scapegoat for bad behavior. So maybe Dr. Doom has been up to something!

Nah, it was a Skrull infiltrator.
