Police Say Violent Video Game Inspired Teen Arson Spree
I guess teens just aren’t satisified burning things in the name of Tony Hawk. In this story which happened in Gaston County, NC, which is one county over from Charlotte, three dumbasses by the names of Sean Jones, David Ellington and Paul Jarrell allegedly went on a three week arson spree because of the game Postal 2. This is the entire mention of Postal 2 in the article…
GASTON COUNTY, N.C. — Police say three Gaston County teens–Sean Jones, David Ellington and Paul Jarrell charged with setting eight cars and one vacant home on fire–got the idea from a video game, “Postal 2″.
That’s it.
For those of you left scratching your head Postal 2 is possibly the most tasteless first person shooter ever released on the public. Not my kind of game but you can read up on it here.
Do I think Postal made these kids go on their arson spree? If you think I’m going to say yes you haven’t been paying attention. I think Gaston County made these kids go on an arson spree. To the locals in Charlotte, Gaston County is like its retarded brother that the family keeps locked in the attic. Fred Durst used to live in Gaston County, that should tell you something.
These were just three dumbass redneck kids with a touch of pyromania. If it wasn’t Postal it would have been some movie like Jackass or something.
