But these games are just as popular in many other countries as well.

We also have guns.

But we’ve always had guns, so it’s not just the availability of guns.

We didn’t see mass shootings until the FPS was invented. And just about every mass shooter (certainly every school shooter) has been trained on FPS.

Ok, but there are lots of countries with guns AND first person shooter gaming. So why is it worse in the US?
