Mass Murders In America This Past Weekend

This post is illustrated with the image that I created to comfort myself after the nightmarish weekend of violence that we Americans just endured. It felt to me as if the hot, dry fields of the American political landscape were almost set aflame by fascist Antifa, then the cooling rain came in, as the tears of my compatriots for "unity not racism".

Yesterday, I posted to President Donald J. Trump

online at https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/

I want to express my TOTAL APPROVAL & SUPPORT for President Trump's responses to the El Paso and Dayton shootings this past weekend (urging unity not racism, moving forward on red flag laws to keep guns out of the hands of the mentally ill, condemnation of violent first person shooter games, etc.)

As President Trump has often said, the causes of gun violence are mental illness; and also violent video games which rehearse mass assaults on innocent people, even on the elderly, disabled, and children (disguised as zombies to break down inhibitions). Shooters are wearing headphones to amp themselves up with the violent music that they are used to hearing while playing their evil first-person shooter games.

See: https://www.crazygames.com/t/first-person-shooter Don't let the bad graphics fool you, these murder simulating games are mesmerizing. They reward each murder with sparkly lights, fun noises, and give award-like martial equipment in ceremonial contexts that these losers could never achieve in RL (real life).

"Competitions are held in real-time strategy (RTS), first-person shooter (FPS), and multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA). There’s a lot of money to be made here. Nearly a half billion people world-wide have tuned in on platforms like Twitch, which is owned by Jeffrey P. Bezos, who also owns the Washington Post."
