Sen. Alexander: Problem Is With People Pulling The Trigger

“We should ask the leaders of the entertainment industry whether they would want their children — or those who might harm their children — to watch the increasingly violent video games and movies that they pour into our culture,” Alexander said Monday. “This is not the only cause of violence in our society, but it is one important cause.”

Some news reports have indicated the 20-year-old Connecticut gunman played violent computer games. Alexander said “we must look closely at the behavior of isolated young men who develop an obsession with violence.”

“The problem is not with the gun, but with the person pulling the trigger.

But the idea of making it harder for them to get to a trigger is never an option.
