I tried to train in shooting for real life in a video game. I still sucked at shooting real life. Then I tried it with shooting. Then athletics. then driving. I still suck at all of them in real life.
Jack thompson is the biggest fucking moron I have ever met. I hope he catches throat cancer so he'll shut his fucking mouth.
I find it insulting when Jack Thompson blames violent video games for school shootings. It is avoiding the real problem and causing further deaths. in reality, the biggest problem is bullying. Bullying mentally erodes a students sanity to where he loses all touch with reality. When you push a person for so long, its a matter of time before he strikes back. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris were victims of bullying. Cho was also bullied for his learning disabilities and speech impediment.
Jesus I hate jack Thompson, describing postal 2 as a school shooting trainer, seriously? This is a game that is meant to be unrealistic for instance you can use a cat as a gun silencer
I played Dead Rising nad now I've stabbed nails into my baseball bat and go around the neighborhoods killing everyone in sight as if they were zombies.
Clearly after hours of training on World of Tanks, I'm now capable of operating soviet Artillery. Fuck you and your dumb ass preconceived logic bullshit.
Is he serious? I think that may have been a lie, but thats just me.
Anyways theres no such thing as "Training" on a video game. its pure entertainment. there are dozens of other shootings on the street do they play video games? maybe, but no one cares to ask they only focus on what will scare people. also soldiers are supposed to kill, so it makes sense to have them play shooting games in order to feel a sense of realism, but the average joe ISN'T learning to kill
Maybe cho could not take any more of the bullshit flying out of jacks mouth and was so angry he had decided to end the misery of kids who could not play counterstrike due to his Nazi rule of the media
jack thompson is a stupid christfuck, he is way overchrist, he says he stands for free speech but ALL of his cases show that he clearly doesn't, especially the facebook case
slow heart rate? did jack forgot to minchin that the killer was a fat ass or a major smoker? maybe thats why the killer's heart rate was slower (or maybe its slower because he shot himeself)
He seems like nothing but a con-artist! He could easy look at the statistic from U.K, Canada, Russia, Korea, Japan and other major video game countries to see if there a link to violence or maybe another factor is effecting the american school shooting. Or perhaps but the blame on the person who did this act. In fact he is standing up for the shooters as they were not at fought, the video games did it. Sympathy for the guilty is punishment to the innocent.
Do you know why Jack Thompson went on MSNBC to talk about this subject matter? Viewership! It is a fact that more people watch MSNBC over Fox News and CNN combined. Why do you think the tag line is "The Place for Politics"? It is because they have the most honest journalism staff.
Yeah kids have been going to school in the United States with guns for 300 years. United States hasn't even been a country for 300 years yet. Jack Thompson doesn't know fuckin shit.
? All of this can be simulated in anyones mind, I think to myself sometimes, wow (at a fire drill) what if someone had a gun and killed us all outside as we were really open to getting slaughtered. (That's just my excellent war tatics). But if I play GTA I'd be thinking (KILLL KILL KILLLLLLL OMG KILLL) *FIRES A GUN* My score: 200 [easy kills] 500 [fatal wounds] Their score: - 700 [their all dead]
Hey guys, we don't need to go train and practice sport anymore. Just play your favorite sport video games, basketball, football, soccer, etc... and you'll be ready in the real world games lol. This guy is another of those idiots that couldn't find anything credible to blame on but the cliche default media and entertainment. Holding a gun is different from holding a remote control, you fucking morons. His stupid logic just make me want to bitch slap this moron silly.
if we didnt have "mass murder machines", then the world would be without a way to vent anger. these people who shot up their schools WERE MENTALLY ILL. video games are scapegoats because it was commonly seen in those guys rooms. the mental insitutions are faulty therefore these guys are out there and mistreated socially so they get pissed and shoot everyone. Jack Thompson is an idiot to even try to scapegoat video games and use this argument.SHOOTINGS HAVE HAPPENED BEFORE GAMES WERE INVENTED!
Of all things we could blame, Seung-Hui Cho the shooter compared himself to Jesus Christ. Maybe we should blame the Christian faith, huh? Doesn't that sound ridiculous?
Thats exactly the kind of thing that Thompson is saying here, lets blame a person's favourite TV shows for what they do, not the way they are treated by others or the extent to which their mental illness goes untreated.
Just to clarify, I've only used like 3 guns in my life, I used them when I was much younger than I am now, and when I was that young, my family was too poor to afford video games, we had TV though.. somehow I still recoignised which way to point the gun, how to look down the sights of a gun, I knew the basics of handling a gun because I'd seen it on TV time and time again, not videos games.
If I trained on video games I'd be able to shoot every kind of weapon on the battlefield, drive every kind of vehicle, be it air, land or sea and operate all the equipment too. This is complete bullshit, you can't TRAIN on a video game. You can get ideas though, the original Rainbow Six games on PC let you plan your attack routes for all the people on your team. You could use that, and do that sort of thing.
LOL "trained on the game, Doom" you can't even aim up or down in Doom! How can you train for real life, using analogue sticks and some buttons. The only reason I'd know how to shoot a weapon is because of movies and documentaries on things like the discovery channel. THAT'S where you learn this shit. THAT is the place wher they walk you through how to reload a weapon, aim it, shoulder it, what to expect, what a certain type of caliber penetrates etc etc, not video games.
I feel like blowing Jack Thompson's head off(and no, that thought didn't come to my mind because I play video games, it's because he's a fucking asshole)
This guy is so full of shit. How the fuck does playing a game affect your heart rate? All gamers know that it doesn't.
Also, playing a game doesn't make you good at shooting in real life does it?
It's hard to believe these idiots are actually listening to that dumb cunt. I've been playing games since i was about 4, i am now 18 and i wouldn't dream of killing a person in real life. Games help me vent my stress and anger. I'm sure they do for a lot of others here too.
does it make you a good shooter in real life? well, given the fact that video games have HUDs, you can generally take several bullets to your chest without effect, and med kits bring you to "full health", I should say no. But i've been wrong.
BTW, using jack's logic, 9/11 is a direct result of a flight simulator. It accurately teaches you how to fly a plane. on top of that, mario is evil, because it depicts a stereotype jumping on things and stealing coins.
The one thing is that the kids that get affected by these kind of games and think they can kill anyone they want and that kind of stuff must be MENTALY ILL ... ffs -.-
What's sick is he accused the shooting on video games before the shooter was identified as Cho. And he still believes it's was the fault of games even though Cho didn't play games.
@cs6129 "Flight Simulator" which is made by Microsoft! Microsoft actually said that pilots use that game in order to train as a simulator. It comes from Microsoft so it has to be true. Microsoft has never flat-out lied. They may make over statements and fabrications, but they have never lied to push an agenda or point of view to sell software. Don't bring up Windows or Xbox because that would be a dishonest comparison and you all know it.
this is the first video I have watched with Jack Thompson, and after finding out what a no-good self-serving egomanic he is, this will be the LAST video with Jack Thompson I watch. Sorry Jack, lost another one to sanity
The game is called "Counter-Strike", not "Counter-Strike Half-Life". There is no game called "Counter-Strike Half-Life" (as someone else here pointed out, there is game called "Half-Life: Counter-Strike").
Cho didn't play "Counter-Strike" in college. He played it in high school.
Cho trained himself, not by playing video games, but by shooting targets at shooting ranges.
does playing madden make you a better football player? fuck no. so why should playing a shooter make you a better gunman? until people and guns can be controlled with sticks and face buttons, it will remain impossible to train for anything using video games
Everyone can use a gun without a videogame, so what this idiot Jack Thompson is saying that you get a videogame and it comes with a gun and a manual on how to shoot other people.
To shoot a gun is just to pull a trigger of a gun and Jack Thompson is foolish to say that.
Any fucked up shithead (except for Jack Thompson here) can tell that those shooters at the schools are just pissed off at their pasts there, so they want revenge. In other words, they are stupid people, not because of video games.
And he was American. No offense, America's great, but I wouldn't be surprised if an American didn't know how to shoot a gun. The fucking gun ban laws are fucked up there, video games don't need to be played to figure out how to use a gun.
the guy who shot everyone was probably because every1 hated him and made fun of him. i know some weird ass kid at my school who every1 hates...he has a squeky voice...dun dun dun dun
Yeah, people hated me at my school, but they were retarded to begin with (Hint: class average was below 50). They made fun of me and all that, and I never wanted to kill them... maybe I thought about it for awhile, but no ideas about shooting kids at a school.
Why the media keeps interviewing this scumbag lawyer aka loser ? and I like how they name it "murder simulation", how about space invader, you're not murdering aliens? how about TV? or this interview, "retard interview simulation" .
does anyone read the description, the author hates Jack Thompson, the rating should be higher, really read the description, combine the description witht he video makes it more of a bag on Thompson.
cold blooded killers. For example: the shooter from V-Tech(virginia tech)never really played violent video games. He only played games like: Sonic the Hedgehog. They
never really found any traces of violent games like GTA or Postal 2 in his home.
hmm..calm and cool as you shoot people...maybe he was a sociopath? I can't wait for the day that Jack Thompson gets caught snorting crystal meth with his secret gay lover
jack tompson: lord of the soccer moms/ breaker of the amendments, hes a fucking lawyer yet he is breaking the first amendment freedom of speach. so again FUCK YOU JACK TOMPSON!
You can't train on a game! You don't recieve weapons training, there entertainment. And he shouldn't blame Video games for violence in teens rising. THat is false, It reached an all time low in 2004. The best selling game of 2004 was Grand theft auto:san andreas.
Video games? Gun control? How about the fact that these kids were fucking picked on? You don't think that might trigger mental illness? You don't think THAT might make you want to kill people?
Why don't you have a fucking psychologist on the news instead of these fucking political talking heads?
Doom? Are you kidding? The graphics are so bad you might as well "train" with 'Barney Goes to Happyland'. I don't beleive this guy. Vice City is not a "Murder" game. If he one time sat down and played it, he would realize he is completely wring. Don't they take into account the phycological problems with these shooters? WTF
Jack your a dumb ass just Fucking kill yourself NOW!!!....I play GTA and Counter strike and all RATED M GAMES that you think is "Training" people to kill people well guess what....Your my next target >:D bitch...BTW soon your kid will want to kill you :)
You know Jack, we could also blame movies, tv shows, friends and family, and yes, even social atmosphere for the causes of these tragic events, but nooo, you have to single point your finger to 1 of the many possible causes of influencing a person's mind to commit such crime. People like you are what stops video games from beign truly recognized as art.
"thanx very much for you'r expertiese"?!?!?!?! WTF?! can i just ask something, why the fucking fuck-ma-fuck doesent he put all the time that he has on Gun-controll, wich is the real issue here, considering it never happens in japan or belgium, instead of just badmouthing games with not a singele piece of fucking evidence, what a fuckig fuck...fuck u jack thopmson u fucking fucker...
it's so funny how in the beginning of the video it says: JACK THOMPSON = School shooting expert. And by the end of the video, David says Thompson specializes terribly! lol
we shold get. bill gates, the bungie team, Id software team, rockstar team, and gametralers (including the screwattack team including AVGN of corse) and all gamers evryware vs. Jack Tompson he wold shit his pants when he sees us charging him. because. We are a comunity, We are a family, and We are gamers
Also i play thousands of video games but unless you have me a simple bolt action rifle i probably would not be able to reload it effectively let alone shoot the damn thing. games don't train you to kill hell games are the only thing stopping me from killing people sometimes.... VIDEO GAMES SAVE LIVES!
I tried to train in shooting for real life in a video game. I still sucked at shooting real life. Then I tried it with shooting. Then athletics. then driving. I still suck at all of them in real life.
Jack thompson is the biggest fucking moron I have ever met. I hope he catches throat cancer so he'll shut his fucking mouth.

@cs6129 "Flight Simulator" which is made by Microsoft! Microsoft actually said that pilots use that game in order to train as a simulator. It comes from Microsoft so it has to be true. Microsoft has never flat-out lied. They may make over statements and fabrications, but they have never lied to push an agenda or point of view to sell software. Don't bring up Windows or Xbox because that would be a dishonest comparison and you all know it.

Here are the real facts about the VT shootings.
The game is called "Counter-Strike", not "Counter-Strike Half-Life". There is no game called "Counter-Strike Half-Life" (as someone else here pointed out, there is game called "Half-Life: Counter-Strike").
Cho didn't play "Counter-Strike" in college. He played it in high school.
Cho trained himself, not by playing video games, but by shooting targets at shooting ranges.

does playing madden make you a better football player? fuck no. so why should playing a shooter make you a better gunman? until people and guns can be controlled with sticks and face buttons, it will remain impossible to train for anything using video games

Everyone can use a gun without a videogame, so what this idiot Jack Thompson is saying that you get a videogame and it comes with a gun and a manual on how to shoot other people.
To shoot a gun is just to pull a trigger of a gun and Jack Thompson is foolish to say that.
KaiyoDark 3 years ago
Any fucked up shithead (except for Jack Thompson here) can tell that those shooters at the schools are just pissed off at their pasts there, so they want revenge. In other words, they are stupid people, not because of video games.
And he was American. No offense, America's great, but I wouldn't be surprised if an American didn't know how to shoot a gun. The fucking gun ban laws are fucked up there, video games don't need to be played to figure out how to use a gun.

Yeah, people hated me at my school, but they were retarded to begin with (Hint: class average was below 50). They made fun of me and all that, and I never wanted to kill them... maybe I thought about it for awhile, but no ideas about shooting kids at a school.

Violent video games don't turn people into
cold blooded killers. For example: the shooter from V-Tech(virginia tech)never really played violent video games. He only played games like: Sonic the Hedgehog. They
never really found any traces of violent games like GTA or Postal 2 in his home.

You can't train on a game! You don't recieve weapons training, there entertainment. And he shouldn't blame Video games for violence in teens rising. THat is false, It reached an all time low in 2004. The best selling game of 2004 was Grand theft auto:san andreas.

Video games? Gun control? How about the fact that these kids were fucking picked on? You don't think that might trigger mental illness? You don't think THAT might make you want to kill people?
Why don't you have a fucking psychologist on the news instead of these fucking political talking heads?

Doom? Are you kidding? The graphics are so bad you might as well "train" with 'Barney Goes to Happyland'. I don't beleive this guy. Vice City is not a "Murder" game. If he one time sat down and played it, he would realize he is completely wring. Don't they take into account the phycological problems with these shooters? WTF

You know Jack, we could also blame movies, tv shows, friends and family, and yes, even social atmosphere for the causes of these tragic events, but nooo, you have to single point your finger to 1 of the many possible causes of influencing a person's mind to commit such crime. People like you are what stops video games from beign truly recognized as art.
