But social healthcare is the supreme evil, right? Government funded mental healthcare is just some liberal communist agenda, RIGHT? Even though very few insurance policies, especially private insurance companies, cover full-blown mental healthcare?

But youre ready to rag on violent video games as a leading perpetrator? What? Violent video games have never killed anyone. Ever think that the psycho plays violent video games so much because he's psycho, instead of "playing video games so often turn an ordinary child into a psycho?"

Video games never killed anyone. Assault rifles have killed millions. Your analogy to banning assault rifles relates to banning violent games is simply a poor analogy. People use games and movies to entertain themselves. Normal human beings can very well distinguish pixelated gore and real death perfectly. Only psychos do not make this comparison. Assault weapons have only one purpose: to kill many people in VERY short amounts of time. Automatic weapons have no practical use in home defense nor hunting. It does allow psychos to get a hold of them, though. So why do we allow them? If you need to arm yourself, get a semi-automatic rifle or a pistol. You still have the tools necessary to fully use your 2nd amendment rights.
