    I didn’t defend anything, I just pointed out the irony of “videogames don’t kill people, people kill people.”

      Perfect example of false equivalence.

      I’m sure someone walking outside with a videogame is just as dangerous as somebody walking around with a gun. Exactly the same thing.

        No, but arguably anyone driving a car is.

        They’re not saying people are killing people with videogames, and you know that, so you’re being disingenuous. You’re creating an equivalency I didn’t make and arguing with it, not me. When you do this you only look smart to stupid people.
