"Anyone who is willing to give up a little liberty for a little security loses both and deserves neither." ~Benjamin Franklin
Did it even occur to anyone who doesn't post on a messageboard (seriously, why does all the common sense exist exclusively on messageboards?) that the root of Cho's problems are psychological? You know, mental illness? I mean, whether he was influenced by some form of media or not, you have to be a fucking looney to wanna kill people. Anyone who can't distinguish between reality and fantasy has a few screws loose and they shouldn't be used as a case to ruin everyone else's fun and freedom. So you found some form of media that contains similarity to something that happened in real life--that alone doesn't make a case against the aforementioned media. If someone is inspired by the story of Cain and Abel to kill their brother, is the FCC going to try and ban the Bible? That'd be hilarious.
