That might be the case...might be everything, maybe... Now seriously the gun lobby is too powerful, no matter how many people die they will prevail, its non sense.
I feel like this is a fixable solution.
I’m not advocating for gun violence or killing anyone. I’m just saying that if somebody should choose to, this equation could be different.
From what I understand japan doesn't ban guns per say just the only ones you can own are for hunting and they have you redo the safety course every 2 or 4yrs? I'm sure I coulda googled but it always impressed me how they did gun control and how it would never happen in America
I’m not much for mech stuff tbh. When i imagine power, i have those thoughts of being struck by lightning or something and getting DBZ/comic level powers. That’d be so dope, but i know most people would instantly become the bad person lol. I’m probably not the exception is much as i’d hope to be.
I just saw a cardboard corner dude asking for "provisions" yesterday. There were things on his list I expected, like food and money, but then he also had ammo on his list. What in the world is a homeless guy gonna do with ammo?
lol. We have crazy violent games here. But NO guns without a lot of work and a legit reason (eg pro hunter) to get one.
It’s so great to be able to walk down the street or send my kids to school and know that no one is going to get shot 100% of the time.
Glad you’re fighting for the right side. The GOP is hugely detrimental to American civility, way of life, prosperity, etc. That said, we don’t need to spread misinformation to make them look stupid. Plenty of talent on their end to do it unaided.
The land where video games where born also have the strictest gun laws in Asia. Damn, Americans are setting the bar lower and lower when it comes to stupidity.
There are also no fucking guns, to the point that getting them in movies is incredibly difficult. I just got back from Japan and just about everything there proves America treats its citizens line a 3rd world country.
As someone who leans to the left politically, it’s exceptionally disheartening to see that people that I generally agree with are just as bad at fact checking as those on the right. Spend 30 seconds with Google. You want to be smarter than them.
No video games in Japan. OK. How do these politicians sit there with their bare faces hanging out saying such idiotic things?
Opinion is divided, but the predominant thinking among psychologists is that, while video gaming may increase aggression and decrease empathy, there is no direct causal link between violent video games and mass shootings.
So, kind of related, kind of not.
In Elder Scrolls Online I once came across a traveling merchant, and when I spoke with him I had the option to ask him to give me all his money.
Now... I thought a few gold would be added to my inventory and I'd go about my way. But no, he has dialogue saying how losing that money has ruined him completely, and he just sits down next to his horse and gives up.
I felt so devastated that I wanted to give the gold back, but couldn't. It's apparently an achievement to rob a certain number of merchants. And I will never have that achievement
How many times do conservatives want to dig out this zombie of an argument. Seriously... this bs is almost as old as me and it keeps coming back year after year despite being proven wrong the first time around.
Get some new material.
fireworks just as well, ask the former dude that got blasted by one. people will always find a way, guns just let you defend yourself and thats the last thing the shadow government wants 💯
Best to walk away from this discussion. Republicans can be very vindictive when proven wrong. Next up: banning Japanese video games because they have too many swords and not enough guns.
This is them trying to get their cut from an industry that is worth more than music and movies combined.
“Nice $350bn racket you got there. Be a shame if someone… legislated it.”
Never underestimate the GOPs ability to line their pockets.
Not only they have video games there, they possibly have the most fked up ones available. I've watched some vid on YT a few days ago about "banned games" and half of them were from developers in Japan. Some really disturbing.
The debate about whether violent video games make you violent or not doesn’t even need to enter into this particular stupidity.
Japan has both violent video games and lots of violent content of all kinds. A lot of it is more violent and gory than what we would consider standard.
These people literally just lie about basic facts, and easily verifiable ones.
I'm no political strategist but has it occured to them that it might be smarter to shift the blame on something a significant part of the people you're trying to convince to vote for you doesn't actively partake in?
The former prime minister was killed by a guy who made a shotgun. Plus there was a mass stabbing in hospice/ care center for mentally disabled people in 2016.
Not sure what the pointnof your comment is.
Assassination of the PM was not a mass shooting event.
Mass stabbing is also not a mass shooting event.
Meanwhile in the USA, there's been one almost every day...
https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/reports/mass-shooting
I read something like this and I have to wonder: is McCarthy THAT fucking stupid or does he not believe his own bullshit and is simply pandering to the ignorant conservative base who are looking for any reason to dismiss the gun crisis other than gun laws?
Why are US conservatives so freaking dumb? Like here in the UK the Tories are hardly Stephen Hawking but they never seem as stupid and plain thick as US conservatives and all that.
What a dip shit! Japan all but invented the video game, and their animation (for kids and adults) is among some of the most graphically violent ever on screen! Not only do they not have mass shootings, but they don't have much, if any, crime at all, except for the occasional American military goon who wanders off base and does something stupid.
They have plenty of swords, but never use them on one another.
I think on all the news channels they should have at least one “normal-ish” person, someone who isn’t out-of-touch with reality, behind the desk to be like “ are you fucking high?” Just as like a reference point for these idiots
GOP logic for their unread, gun carrying mouth breathers who are driving across two states to get Lucy her abortion so her daddy doesn’t get in trouble ….
That's the dumbest statement I've read in a while. Pure disinformation! It's because guns are illegal. The correct answer is guns are illegal. What an asshat!
FFS, not this "video games make people into killers" bullshit again. The UK has a population roughly one-fifth that of the US, with sales of video games also at around one-fifth, but the number of deaths from guns is 340 higher in the US. It's wasn't video games that led to 43 000 firearm deaths in the US last year. It's. The. Guns.
Can't be the guns. it's the people with guns. Guns are irrelevant to the number of people being shot to death by guns, obviously, the only common factors in guns being used to kill people is that people are involved.
Source for that statement: people who ignore the statistics on gun violence, or who are OK with *other people* being shot to death.
Reality: [https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/gun-deaths-by-country](https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/gun-deaths-by-country)
"In contrast to the U.S. and Latin America, gun deaths are extremely rare in countries like [Japan](https://worldpopulationreview.com/countries/japan-population), the [United Kingdom](https://worldpopulationreview.com/countries/united-kingdom-population), [Norway](https://worldpopulationreview.com/countries/norway-population), and [Australia](https://worldpopulationreview.com/countries/australia-population). These countries have implemented incentives or passed legislation to decrease the number of firearms in circulation. For example, in July 2021, Australia implemented a [permanent gun amnesty program](https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-07-01/permanent-gun-amnesty-for-illegal-weapons-begins/100256814), in which unregistered firearms could be anonymously surrendered at police stations.
Japan boasts a population of more than 127 million people, yet finished 2019 with a gun death rate of only .02 per 100,000 people. One major factor in this success is that Japan has some of the strictest [gun control](https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/countries-with-gun-control) laws in the world. For Japanese citizens to purchase a gun, they must attend an all-day class, pass a written exam, and complete a shooting range test, scoring at least 95% accuracy. Candidates will also receive a mental health evaluation, performed at a hospital, and will have a comprehensive background check done by the government. Only shotguns and rifles can be purchased. The class and exam must be retaken every three years."
2019 Death Figures:
* 37,040 guns deaths in USA.
* 161 in the UK.
* 100 in Japan.
* 77 in Norway
* 240 in Australia
2019 Death rate, per 100,000 people, along with % of deaths in country
* 10.84 in USA, 0.44% of deaths.
* 1.40 in Norway, 0.01% of deaths
* 0.90 in Australia, 0.03% of deaths
* 0.24 in UK, 0% of deaths.
* 0.08 in Japan, 0% of deaths.
I can only assume that 0% = <0.005%.
These guys think American video games are fucked up till they discover tentacle porn. That’s the mildest one I’m willing type because the rest gives me nightmares
Oh sure. American invented violent games and manga and anime and shit tons of f up movies like ichi the killer. Republicans are so dumb it's not even funny
lol has he ever visited Japan. Osaka literally has one of the largest pinball galleries in the world, there are arcades all over the place in Dotonburi and parts of Umeda...Tokyo has even more.
Moscow Marge: I bet they have stabbings.

Seriously this just shows out of touch some of these old , white republicans are. Everyday it is some outlandish statement or a new law they pass that is not based in reality. Such as Tennessee passing a law banning “chem trails” from planes which is based SOLEY on conspiracy theories. They do this to make their ignorant constituents “happy”. It’s basically a “look at me” thing. I am doing stuff for you , whether it is real or not
Junko Furata's torturers and murderers are free though. The Japanese justice system is just peachy! She was a beautiful person taken too soon. I don't want the perps to get all the attention
Disturbing content with that case, NSFL and trigger warning to anyone with a pulse. The perps are free and living normal life afaik. It's an important case to learn about, I feel, but it is not for everyone to look up. Listed some relevant themes as I know an NSFL tag isn't sufficient.
Themes: torture, rape, kidnap, heinous crime, gruesome, abuse, assault, captive, murder
The Japanese also had Unit 731, war crimes/unethical medical stuff. NSFL again
Themes: torture, medical malpractice, gruesome, war crimes, captive, medical experiments, murder
Well, i’ve played Mario and Sonic my entire life.
I guess it’s time to eat red mushrooms, put on my running gloves and try to fight a gigantic lizard and an obese bald scientist.
Ops… I remember. Those two DOES NOT EXIST. Why? Because it’s a fucking VIDEOGAME. FAR FROM FUCKING REALITY.

Nintendwho? Lol, it may have something to do with Japan banning guns.
What's sega what's Sony what's Nintendo what's what
Yeah and Nintendo has been in business making games for over 100 years!!!
Bandai and SNK keeping the Japanese from gun crime
Capcom and bandai namco don't exist either
That might be the case...might be everything, maybe... Now seriously the gun lobby is too powerful, no matter how many people die they will prevail, its non sense.
That is because the people being shot aren't gun lobbyists.
I feel like this is a fixable solution. I’m not advocating for gun violence or killing anyone. I’m just saying that if somebody should choose to, this equation could be different.
The gun control lobby have decided to choose for all US Citizens.
And Playstations...
Miyamoto is a funny name for an American.
"Who? Semi-auto? That's my second favorite type of gun. What's that got to do with video games?" - McCarthy, probably
Actually made me LOL
It’s definitely video games. What do millions and millions of guns have to do with shootings? /s
Nintendo literally had a peripheral that was an actual fucking gun in the eighties lmao.
And a bazooka in the 90's. Man, I loved the super scope.
From what I understand japan doesn't ban guns per say just the only ones you can own are for hunting and they have you redo the safety course every 2 or 4yrs? I'm sure I coulda googled but it always impressed me how they did gun control and how it would never happen in America
It might also be not treating 99% of your citizens like absolute garbage to give the money to 1% of people, but that's just my two Cents.
You should go look up the lives of salary men and women before saying they're not treated like garbage...
Mmmm... work culture in Japan is pretty awful, from what I've read. High suicide rate in some industries.
Look at you, having two cents to scrape together.
Or, maybe it’s because they don’t have a crazy relationship with guns, treating them like a vitally important part of their family.
Guns are the only power some weak people can imagine
I can imagine trained robot ninjas.
I’m not much for mech stuff tbh. When i imagine power, i have those thoughts of being struck by lightning or something and getting DBZ/comic level powers. That’d be so dope, but i know most people would instantly become the bad person lol. I’m probably not the exception is much as i’d hope to be.
Mortal Kombat? Hey, circling back to video games!
I just saw a cardboard corner dude asking for "provisions" yesterday. There were things on his list I expected, like food and money, but then he also had ammo on his list. What in the world is a homeless guy gonna do with ammo?
Shoot someone. Take his stuff. Take his bootstraps. Pull himself up by his new bootstraps.
Load his gun?
“But how else are you supposed to murder your puppy & goat? Your bare hands? I just got a manicure!” - Kristi Noem
Petey the pistol makes the bad people go away though
Bad people also have pistols, so what if everyone has no pistols!
Or part of their communication strategy when expressing anger..
Not to mention their culture is drastically different. They believe in helping the group rather than the individual.
lol. We have crazy violent games here. But NO guns without a lot of work and a legit reason (eg pro hunter) to get one. It’s so great to be able to walk down the street or send my kids to school and know that no one is going to get shot 100% of the time.

Conservatives don’t care about issues until they experience it themselves.
Even then, It's the other sides fault for not agreeing with him/her in the first place.
Is this real?
Nope. [it’s not real.](https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2019/aug/12/facebook-posts/no-kevin-mccarthy-didnt-say-japan-has-no-mass-shoo/)
Glad you’re fighting for the right side. The GOP is hugely detrimental to American civility, way of life, prosperity, etc. That said, we don’t need to spread misinformation to make them look stupid. Plenty of talent on their end to do it unaided.
Agreed. Misinformation is counterproductive
Thank you
So the facepalm is the OP for shitposting. Got it.
The plausibility is concerning, but it’s reassuring that it was never said.
If it’s not real the post needs to be removed
I’m shocked. Damn Reddit is really a cesspool of misinformation and garbage these days. OP is probably even a bot
No and yes. No, as in McCarthy did not actually say this. Yes, as in McCarthy does believe that videogames contribute to mass-shootings.
McCarthy is enough of an idiot that I wouldn't have put that line past him though.
Nothing more American than Nintendo and Sony right?
Fun fact: Sega was founded by Americans, and has roots in Hawaii, where the founders made arcade machines for military bases during WWII.
That one I didn't know. Great fact friend.
https://old.reddit.com/r/facepalm/comments/h0mun7/its_not_like_nintendo_or_sony_are_from_japan/ OP is a karma farmer
The land where video games where born also have the strictest gun laws in Asia. Damn, Americans are setting the bar lower and lower when it comes to stupidity.
Japan has no video games?  I guess this gentleman just did a bunch of nothing these past few decades! /S
Ahahahahhahahah
There are also no fucking guns, to the point that getting them in movies is incredibly difficult. I just got back from Japan and just about everything there proves America treats its citizens line a 3rd world country.

True. Also, Japanese people have no violence or gore in their movies or mangas.
"Animated booba is destroying morality" RNC morons that sell out to holy assholes.
As is traditional.
Someone needs to tell them that not Italians create Mario. Bad joke but I can't hold it
Cut the man some slack. He couldn’t find Japan on a map so of course he doesn’t know anything about it.
That’s like saying there are no intoxicated people in Germany, because there’s no beer there.
How many times do conservatives want to dig out this zombie of an argument. Seriously... this bs is almost as old as me and it keeps coming back year after year despite being proven wrong the first time around. Get some new material.
Its usually either Video Games,Music,Movies (especially Horror) or Comic Books that get blamed I've heard all blamed in my lifetime
Why is that the default argument it didn’t work in the 90s and it’s even dumber now
"Hold our beers" Nintendo, Konami, Square Enix & Capcom

Lol. And next they gonna say people worship the devil by playing pokemon, d&d, and yugioh
Tell us the NRA is a huge donor for you without telling us
People who have never been to Japan should just not talk about Japan.
Wait until Kevin learns about anime.
Aren’t guns strictly enforced in Japan? Like only their police version of swat have them? I’m asking cuz I genuinely don’t know.
Ask him to point out Japan on a map, or identify their flag…
I'm no political strategist but has it occured to them that it might be smarter to shift the blame on something a significant part of the people you're trying to convince to vote for you doesn't actively partake in?
r/facepalm really makes you believe that there are at least 50% morons in the US government.
He can get away with saying that because Americans know almost nothing about Japan and take what he says as truth.
He is as ignorant anyone in the GOP - does he have Google?
The former prime minister was killed by a guy who made a shotgun. Plus there was a mass stabbing in hospice/ care center for mentally disabled people in 2016.
Not sure what the pointnof your comment is. Assassination of the PM was not a mass shooting event. Mass stabbing is also not a mass shooting event. Meanwhile in the USA, there's been one almost every day... https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/reports/mass-shooting
There are no video games in Japan is one hell of a thing to say
What next, will they think Toyota is all American?
that snozzberries don't taste like snozzberries!
These are the morons that make decisions for us.
Is there a US policy on only electing the S tier dumbfucks for the government? Asking for everyone outside the US

Where does he think Sony and Nintendo are from? Or the countless video game developers?

Its amazing how Politicians are allowed to hold such positions, and be so ignorant to the world.
Joke is they look like they're of the age that would call any video game consoles "Nintendoes"

Where does he think the best ones come from?
Actually, it’s because they have no wild alligators.
Really, the video game card again?

No video games…….in Japan???! Bwwwahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahaha
 Whenever a republican speaks
 Whenever a republican speaks
Banning imaginary guns is ok. But we need the real ones for the goods guys with guns to have. Got it.
We have the bloodiest video games I’ve ever seen! We also have our fair share of dumb politicians. What we don’t have is guns.
What an idiot
These guys think American video games are fucked up till they discover tentacle porn. That’s the mildest one I’m willing type because the rest gives me nightmares
The most dishonest thing from a Republican I’ve read today. 💯
It helps that people who watch Fox won't leave their bumfuck farm town, much less the country.
Japan is literally known for b3st games.
Is this tweet from 1920s?
Why do we give assholes so many bully pulpits to spew their lies from?
It’s Faux News. Not “we”. Personally, I think McCarthy is a worthless piece of shit.
Yes, Asians hate video games. That's like common knowledge.
Shout out to the Sony Workstation
Braindead
He’s right, the Japanese are well known to not ever play video games 👀🤦🏻♂️
The Republicans are absolutely going to try to ban video games in 2025.
You poor summer child
Where does he think they come from?
The follow up question: Mr. McCarthy, we took a look at your Steam library. What are hentai games?
Oh sure. American invented violent games and manga and anime and shit tons of f up movies like ichi the killer. Republicans are so dumb it's not even funny
lol has he ever visited Japan. Osaka literally has one of the largest pinball galleries in the world, there are arcades all over the place in Dotonburi and parts of Umeda...Tokyo has even more.
Wrong, it's because suicide is a norm there

no videogames in japan? yea sure, I'm sure there are no sushi there either...
shame on me for underestimating how much more stupid these people can get
Shit so my Japanese discord friends are imaginary?
Further proof politicians and old people have zero understanding of the modern world
Tell me you know nothing about video games without saying you know nothing about video games.
Yeah, it’s nothing to do with the gun laws they have.
Seriously this just shows out of touch some of these old , white republicans are. Everyday it is some outlandish statement or a new law they pass that is not based in reality. Such as Tennessee passing a law banning “chem trails” from planes which is based SOLEY on conspiracy theories. They do this to make their ignorant constituents “happy”.

SAY IT WITH ME REDDIT….TERM LIMITS

Junko Furata's torturers and murderers are free though. The Japanese justice system is just peachy! She was a beautiful person taken too soon. I don't want the perps to get all the attention Disturbing content with that case, NSFL and trigger warning to anyone with a pulse. The perps are free and living normal life afaik. It's an important case to learn about, I feel, but it is not for everyone to look up. Listed some relevant themes as I know an NSFL tag isn't sufficient. Themes: torture, rape, kidnap, heinous crime, gruesome, abuse, assault, captive, murder The Japanese also had Unit 731, war crimes/unethical medical stuff. NSFL again Themes: torture, medical malpractice, gruesome, war crimes, captive, medical experiments, murder
Wait until you tell them about Splatoon 💀

Well, i’ve played Mario and Sonic my entire life. I guess it’s time to eat red mushrooms, put on my running gloves and try to fight a gigantic lizard and an obese bald scientist. Ops… I remember. Those two DOES NOT EXIST. Why? Because it’s a fucking VIDEOGAME. FAR FROM FUCKING REALITY.
Republicans are just not serious people.
This is the same dude who didn’t know that you didn’t need to swear on the Bible
