I'm so relieved Hitler never played video games. Could have gotten real violent back then, guess we all dodged a bullet...

That artwork is as much inert or passive as individual gun pieces are. It takes a certain combination of pieces and an action to make the gun deadly. Not sure what kind of combination is required to make games the next matrix
Go buy a physical copy of the latest "Call of Dud 12×10^6", get angry at the smug look of the cover guy holding a very violent, pump-action slingshot "Beretta Pew-300 Turdwhacker" pointed right at you, try to shove the game box down the throat of the cashier in a fit of rage. Violence caused by videogames is a real issue, no real firearm will ever look smugly at you.
If he had played video games he might have learned to dodge his own bullet.
Dunno, i have looked at some mighty fine break action hunting shotgun whose pricetag alone made the rifle looks smugly at me, mocking me for not being able to afford it...

4000 USD...a bit over my budget to say the least.
Thats what you get with an expensive education system and health care as affordable as a new car. but muh freedoms.
Another good one. 9gag is on top of it.
The only way to stop bad guys with video games, is good guys with video games.
Unless it's a matchlock, it can be left loaded and ready to fire essentially forever...well powder quality and humidity permitting.

Less than 1% of shooting deaths in the US are related to mass shootings and most mass shootings aren't in the US.
Well, I look at it from my own perspective. In US, I've got 1:30k chance of being shot, while in UK I've got 1:2M chance. Both are non-zero, but I think I'm good where I am.

In my view, both are so low as to make worrying about being shot (barring equally rare extenuating circumstances) totally irrational, especially in the face of other avoidable causes of death, which are multiple orders of magnitude more likely to occur in either nation. The fuss over firearms, both in the media and in legislature, is entirely disproportionate to the minuscule threat posed, and ultimately wasteful (assuming the goal is to do the most good for the greatest number of people and not impose one's arbitary ideals on everyone else).
Of course, I find the fuss over video games to be equally irrational.
Of course. Blaming videogames is completely bonkers.
And of course - compared to some third-world countires, the death count of the guns in US is tiny.
But that's not the point. It's the absurdity of the whole situation and the willingness to blame the problem on anything but insufficient gun regulation that's the point of this thread. It's not a competition in who's got it the worst.
But the main reason I reacted to your post was that I find people who need to point out that jokes shouldn't be taken seriously amusing.
The best jokes don't have plot holes!
What is this; blaming T.J. again?
That Twitter post; is a good example of satire.
Video games were not the only things used to blame, for shooting etc., by Lord Chump. The violence shown in the media, was also cited; although he failed to mention things like Twitter.
Personally, I think we should look at examples, like Disney. Who back in 1942, (another great year for U.S weapons production) made films like 'Bambi' (shots fired with in the first minutes of the film) and the timeless; 'Victory Through Air Power'; a documentary promoting of the soundness of strategic aerial bombing. Which is still a big thing, for the U.S. today. Disney, is a prime example of how the western world; has been spoon fed, basically from birth; visions of violence, class separation, racism; all from a known anti-semite.
......and that is an example of: Irony.
