Oprah’s #1 prodigy, the bald-headed freak known as Dr. Phil, is now trying to steal Jack Thompson’s crusade and make it his own. What a dick! Of course, he sorta looks like one too, but let’s move on. Look at what this talking head had to say on Larry King Live:

“The problem is we are programming these people as a society. You cannot tell me – common sense tells you – that if these people are playing video games where they’re on a mass killing spree in a video game, it’s glamorized on the big screen, it’s become part of the fiber of our society. You take that and mix it with a psychopath, a sociopath, or someone suffering from mental illness, add in a dose of rage, the suggestability is just too high. And we’re going to have to start dealing with that. We’re going to have to start addressing those issues and recognizing that the mass murderers of tomorrow are the children of today that are being programmed with this massive violence overdose.” 

Come on Phil, there’s already one crazy Jack Thompson, we don’t need another. Or do we? Hmmmmm.
