It's student-hunting season again

I want to talk about Eric got-damn Thompson. This Lance Bass-looking motherfucker sold guns not only to the
Oldboy wannabe that shot up Virginia Tech, but also to the
cracker that shot up Northern Illinois University. And here's what Eric got-damn Thompson has to say about the whole thing: I'm still blown away by the coincidences.
Well yeah, motherfucker. Not even Alanis Morissette could've seen that shit coming. You sell guns. People use guns to shoot people. What a got-damn coincidence that your guns were used to shoot some people. I'm just as stunned as you.
I'm so fucking stunned, my wife thought there was something wrong with me when I read your statement-I was laughing so hard she was afraid my ass would fall off. And she got even more worried when I read
Jack Thompson's letter to the Northern Illinois University president. I'm assuming Jack Thompson isn't related to Eric "Don't Call Me Lance Bass" Thompson, but I'm still having to duct-tape my ass to the rest of my body because Jack "Don't Call Me a Relation to Eric" Thompson thinks the
reason people kill people is because of video games.
The reason people kill people isn't because of video games or guns or bad upbringing. The reason people kill people is because…
The reason people kill people is because most of us don't know how to finish that got-damn sentence.
People kill because they got something wrong with them. And they kill a hell of a lot easier when they can get themselves a motherfucking gun. Though
a meat-cleaver will do in a pinch, but it's a damn-sight
harder to kill 6 people with a meat cleaver. To kill more than one person, you need a gun.
I ain't never seen no mass clever killings, and I damn sure ain't seen no mass game cartridge murders.
Jack Thompson (no relation, as I said, to that Eric Thompson motherfucker) likes to blame all the world's evils on video games. That's like blaming all the world's "American Idol" problems on Kelly Clarkson, or all the world's alcohol problems on Guinness. It's like saying the reason we have so many whiny-ass fat crackers doing talk radio shows is because
Hillary Clinton murdered Vince Foster.
Truth is, ain't nobody ever gonna find a satisfactory reason why Steven Kazmierczak killed those people, but we damn sure know how he killed those motherfuckers-and it wasn't with a subscription to World of Warcraft and it wasn't with a
loaded Kelly Clarkson. Shit. It was with a few guns. Bought from Eric Thompson, who also made Virginia Tech possible.
If I'd prescribed Ambien to both Anna Nicole and to Heath Ledger, you bet your got-damn ass I'd be up on Capital Hill right now getting ass-raped by Arlen Specter. But this Eric Thompson motherfucker ain't gonna get one damn question thrown at him because he's a legal-selling motherfucker, and it is just a crying got-damn shame that he sold some guns to two people who happened to have some high-profile massacres under their belt. He didn't do nothing wrong. He just sold some guns to two mentally deranged motherfuckers that decided to go Full Metal Jacket on their peers.
I think Eric Thompson needs to get himself a new line of work. Maybe he can start working for Brett Ratner, since both of the motherfuckers have a talent for producing pointless violence.
