A 13 year-old girl from Monroe County, Mississippi has been shot in the head by her 9 year-old brother during an argument over an unspecified video game controller.

The Associated Press reports that the incident took place on Saturday, when the girl “wouldn’t give up the video game controller when her brother wanted it.”

That kid is going to have to spend the rest of his life knowing what he did, and his parents share the same guilt moreso for easy access to the fucking thing. Meanwhile, if you read the thread you’ll see people who are triggered over seeing a PS4 controller at a start of the article, because clearly choosing what controller to display is far more important than the story itself. The sad part about all of this is people taking this story and spinning it to blame games for causing violence, not the easy access to guns… But hey, on the bright side children are more replaceable than the weapons themselves.

We are really fucked up as a country. :zorak:
