Earlier today, Ryan Lanza was erroneously reported as the suspect behind the mass shooting in a Connecticut elementary school. The Facebook page of that particular person, which was quickly found by Internet detectives, mentions that he liked the “Mass Effect” video game series (you can check out some screens from the third game, “Mass Effect 3,” in the slideshow at the top of this article).
Because of this, many individuals decided to attack the comments section from the official “Mass Effect” Facebook page, blaming the games for having an influence on the suspect and tragedy. Fans of the series quickly jumped in to defend the games, saying that the suspect alone should be the one under heavy scrutiny. The attacks stopped, however, once authorities confirm that Adam Lanza, the brother of Ryan Lanza, is the real suspect.
