NIU shooting

I actually do think that the media has something to do with people wanting to commit murder. Most of these people have boring lives and will never be famous or anything and they see their one shot of everyone knowing who they are by commiting these horrible crimes. People want to be known for something and i guess in their minds killing people for attention seems like a good idea. I think that video games also play a part in giving these people ideas for how to kill a person or even just the idea to do it. They see these characters in the video games be so "cool" and everyone wants to be like them. The thing that these murders dont understand is that it is just a video game! it isnt real life and those actions that are made in the game are definitely not acceptable actions out in the real world.
