GAMES DON'T KILL KIDS

Cops do. Here in Texas, we don't need fancy-pants movies or video games to kill our kids. We leave that job to the cops:

Via Houston Chronicle:

Three teenage boys were gathered around a favorite video game in a back bedroom of a northwest Houston apartment Friday evening when the police arrived searching for a suspect in an assault.
[...]
Police said nothing Saturday about how or why (Officer) Carbonneau's gun fired, citing an open investigation into the incident. It is the second time in three weeks that an unarmed teen has been shot and killed by a Houston police officer.
[...]
Escobar had gone to the apartment, 3130 Mangum, on Friday at 4 p.m. to play video games at the home of Jose Sanchez, 14. He had told his father he would be home by 6 p.m., and when the boy did not return, his father began to worry.
