Longing for the day ...

Accurate sarcasm ...

Just read this little snippet from Techdirt, which notes that since the German School shooting a lot of people, including a Police Chief, have called for a ban on violent video games - citing a link between them and school shootings. Now, I'm not a fan of violent video games and think the world would be no worse off had they never existed. But I'm not a an of tinned Tuna, either ...

Great quote from the writer at the end:

Violent people probably eat sandwiches, so let's ban them, too. I bet they have all ridden in cars, too, so riding in cars must cause violent behavior -- ban 'em. This correlation/causation thing is easy, isn't it?

Harkens to an earlier Techdirt post about Intellectual Property laws being based on moral arguments rather than evidence ...
