The Columbine shooting gave a lot of gamers (especially in the Doom and Quake communities, and including myself) the same kind of negative media portrayal that some furries perceive is aimed at us. Only worse, because of the solid threats of litigation and regulation on the gaming industry.
Few stories disgust me like this one does, but I'm glad the potential tragedy (if the kid truly was batty enough to eventually do something) was prevented.
I know some furries may feel closer to animals than other human beings, but human lives should come first.
