Teen Threatens Teacher by knife for San Andreas

Hey guys, sorry I don't post as much but im back and promising at least one every morning. I'm kind of in the middle of making a machinima (look it up) so I don't have a lot of free time lately. Anyway, I found this piece of news that damn near scares me.

Some of us love videos games, we're willing to do anything to go buy that game. So what did this one Massachusetts boy do? He held his teacher at knife point for twenty dollars for GTA III: San Andreas.

I cannot believe how some people act, some people are really crazy. I might be willing to sit in my house all day to play video games if i haven't played in a while. But violence and threatening a life for twenty dollars? for a possibly used game?

Sure, no one got hurt thank god. And the kid was apprehended after he (no joke) lowered his demands to one dollar and then had the teacher take the knife from him (11 inches too, what a nutjob).

The funny part is this is a further attack that games cause children to be violent, once again you negligent parents, the answer is No. Why would he want to buy the third GTA video game when he could have the fourth! it's because he probably was buying it on Ebay or something. He's 13 years old holding someone at knife point for a game rated Mature he's not even supposed to be allowed to get.

Look, you can be influenced by a violent video game, but you have to have some kind of heartless ability to be influenced. The fuze that a violent video game lights is the person who is a ticking timebomb, when you are young your not supposed to play these games because your imagination is reality to you. When your like 15 reality sets in and such games don't infleunce you unless you have that dangerous persona already from a bad UPBRINGING by parents.

The fact that this kid wants GTA III even though he's not supposed to be exposed to it that young is the parent's fault. Period. The fact that he wants it so bad he will put a knife to a teacher for money to buy it on ebay where no one knows he's 13 is his fault for being spoiled and craving such raunchy stuff (since i'm 20 and not a GTA fan). He probably was buying it from an older brother of a friend of his now that i think about it.

The kid is crazy, that's it. It's not the video game. A 13 year old who wants it that bad has a problem. He needs to be disciplined and given a mental scan for such ridiculous circumstances he knowingly put himself in. And who's responsible for the knife? parents or maybe the ridiculous friend who's older brother was crazy enought to give an M rated game to this kid.

This is a case of parental negligence who liked having a quiet kid playing video games, and didn't care what they had to get to keep him quiet. But they probably never taught him how not to be spoiled in the bad way and wanted this game that bad. Can you say juvie?
