360 makes kids hit there mom, Ps3 kids hire Hitmen, and the Wii... Kills a kid.

[SinisterDeath]

Not to long ago, a Kid got charged for beating his mother when she wanted him to get off the 360. He went into a wild rage.

Also, not to long ago, a Kid was 'grounded' from his ps3 when his grades started dropping, so he hired a hitman to wack his mother.

 

But the Nintendo Wii has got them beat...

In the above cases, the children were the ones who did/attempted bodily harm.

In this case? Nintendo Wii Is the killer!

 

A 14-year-old boy from Scituate, Mass. died at a minor league hockey game between the Portland Pirates and the Providence Bruins at the Dunkin' Donuts Center in Providence on Friday night. It was "Revival Night," an annual promotion by the team that attracts more than a thousand church congregants to the arena. The Providence Journal reports that that boy, a member of the Word of Life Fellowship Christian outreach program, stayed for the night's postgame festivities -- and that's when an unbelievable tragedy occurred:

The boy - who did not participate in the after-game competitions - won the raffle's grand prize, a Nintendo Wii game console, according to [arena general manager Lawrence] Lepore. "He came down from the stands to get his prize and he either tripped or fell or collapsed," Lepore said yesterday. The boy was taken by New England Ambulance to Hasbro Children's Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.

The Journal doesn't offer a clear geography of where this fall took place, and none of the sources offer insight as to how his injuries could have ended up being fatal. The paper reports that the Providence Police Department is investigating the death pending results of an autopsy. The P-Bruins have released a statement, which indicates that the Wii was being awarded by The Word of Life and not the team, and the P-Bruins planned a moment of silence before Sunday's game.

 

The Dunkin' Donuts Center had just reopened earlier this month after being closed for six months during "phase two" of a three-phase, $80 million renovation. Lepore told The Journal in a Nov. 14 story that his arena was "the safest public building in the country" because of the advanced life-safety measures added during that renovation.

I have to say, from my perspective, When it comes to pure world domination power.

Its Nintendo all the way. I mean, What other platform trains you to be a robotic assassin with 5000 ways to kill a person with a crow bar? But really, the console killed a kid! Instead of the kid killing someone over a console!

Top that 360! :P

Two Teens Kill 7-Year-Old Girl with Supposed Mortal Kombat Moves

 

Two teenagers have been charged with killing one of the pairs’ own 7-year-old sister using alleged Mortal Kombat imitation moves. The 16 and 17 year old teens were babysitting the child while the girl’s mother was at work when the incident happened.

 

The two teens reportedly hit, kicked and body-slammed the girl causing “a broken wrist, more than 20 bruises, swelling of the brain, and bleeding in her neck muscles and under her spine”, the affidavits have said. Prosecutors are claiming the teens were imitating “wrestling moves” found in the Mortal Kombat video game. The 17 year old Roberts claimed he was downstairs at the time, drunk and playing video games but witnesses have told otherwise.

 

There is no defense for this kind of crime. The pure malice you need in order to kill a 7 year old girl that brutally does not come, nor is there any evidence it comes from, video games. The fact video games are being dragged into this horrendous debacle is indicative of the current state of affairs and only reinforces the publics misconceived perception regarding the impact of videogame violence.

 

If the two teens are convicted, they face up to 48 years in prison.
