La eterna vigilancia el el precio del frikismo

El viernes pasado una profesora de Biologia de la universidad de Alabama disparó a cinco de sus colegas, matando a 3 de ellos. Muchos medios piensan que se trató de una disputa normal, pero no así el Boston Herald:


Bishop, now a University of Alabama professor, and her husband James Anderson [pictured below] met and fell in love in a Dungeons & Dragons club while biology students at Northeastern University in the early 1980s, and were heavily into the fantasy role-playing board game, a source told the Herald.

"They even acted this crap out," the source said.

When questioned about it yesterday, Anderson, 45, a research scientist in Huntsville, Ala., dismissed the egghead escape as "a passing interest. It was a social thing more than anything else. It's not the crazy group people think they are." . . .

The popular fantasy role-playing game has a long history of controversy, with objections raised to its demonic and violent elements. Some experts have cited the D&D backgrounds of people who were later involved in violent crimes, while others say it just a game. A federal appeals court recently upheld a prison ban on the game in Wisconsin, where prison officials reportedly testified they were afraid the game could promote "hostility, violence and escape behavior."


A veces pienso si de verdad todo el mundo se piensa que hago mas los fines de semana que echar una risas con los amigos.

  1. Yo he encontrado un patrón adicional, la mayoría de asesinos veían a diario la televisión, y fijate tú, ahi van, matando gente.

  2. Estos gringos y sus teorias siempre tan absurdas. Pasaran 50 años y seguiran culpando a D&D de los errores de su sociedad.
