or maybe he wasn’t really that careful and the FBI just sucks.

Instead of making suicide harder, we should be treating the root cause of suicide

Or… both?

If people get hurt due to gun accidents, I highly doubt they’d be happy if we took their guns away, since that’s like solving traffic deaths by banning cars.

it’s not even remotely the same thing since cars’ primary purpose is not killing. Also there’s a very wide middle ground of options between “do nothing” and “take all guns away”. This is not a binarry issue.

Suicides and gun accidents are certainly interesting statistics, but mixing them with homicides just makes it harder to see what’s going on and arrive at effective solutions.

it doesn’t really. what does make it harder to arrive at effective solutions is making any excuse possible to avoid gun control.

why should we exclude suicides and accidents?

also Greenland isn’t a very reliable comparison statistically since their grand total of intentional murders in 2024 was 3. Canada is ranked 111 with a rate less than half of US. UK is ranked 142 with a rate less than a quarter of the US.

the comment wasn’t about fox news specifically, it was about news in general. like it or not, we need news agencies to cover what these people are doing.

It’s straight disinformation. Nevermind that everyone else plays the same games, let’s cherry pick the one western nation that has a comparable number of guns per capita and not think about that any further.

Because they control the country and people should know what they are doing. It’s not that complicated.

is the news supposed to NOT cover what the government is doing?

this is so obviously false it’s enfuriating coming from the head of HHS. Lots of coutnries all over the world have the same violent video games we do without the mass shootings.

“Switzerland has a comparable number of guns as we do, and the last mass shooting they had was 23 years ago,” said Kennedy, 71. “We have a mass shooting every 23 hours.”

“There are many things that happened in the 1990’s that could explain these,” he added. “One is the dependence on psychiatric drugs… there could be connections with video games and social media.”

okaaaaaaay… follow that train of thought just a liiiiiitle bit further bobby. Do you think Switzerland is stuck in the 80s or something?

they are related and compound each other. it’s harder to “git gud” if you have to do a bunch of runbacks too.

if i purchase a game, you bet your ass i feel entitled to play the whole thing.

@acosmichippo@lemmy.world avatar

well if you buy the game and it’s difficult enough to keep you from playing it all the way through that’s kinda shitty.

yeah this feels more like Splinter Cell with all the climbing and sneaking. Bond spycraft is more social engineering and charm.

acosmichippo, (edited ) do games w Four wheels good, two wheels bad: why are there no exciting cycling games?
@acosmichippo@lemmy.world avatar

look i’m not a ICE apologist or antyhing (these apply to EVs as well) but it’s not hard to figure out why car games are more popular. Also I’m not saying these are universal rules, i’m sure some disagree. But I think it’s safe to say these apply to most in the gamer market.

  1. more power and speed = more fun.
  2. Games are as close as most people will come to driving an expensive car like a BMW, let alone a Ferrari, or even actual racing cars.
  3. Even if you argue people are just not culturally conditioned to aesthetically enjoy bicycles, could you even really appreciate them in the same way in a video game? you’d barely see them.
  4. Cars are much more complex machines and that leads to each having a more unique character than bicycles, and that allows a greater variety of gameplay. For example, mid/front engine, ICE/EV, NA/turbo/super, FWD/RWD/AWD, etc. And usually in games there’s a progression from lower performance cars to higher performance cars.
