If you cannot decipher the title of this article, do not feel alone, as I expected something like the Boston Herald to have a better basic grasp of the English language - but alas, I expected too much.
Summary: Some girl in some campus somewhere killed people a long time ago, because Dungeons & Dragons made her do it, and a guy did the same thing. The girl, Amy, is now a research scientist, so she must have made her Fast Talk check, or at least her lawyer made his Law roll?

Thank you, Boston Herald, once again, you shine the bright light of illumination on the dank corner that is fantasy roleplaying games. May the gods smile upon you and let you know that the full name of the evil game is "Dungeons & Dragons", not Dungeons, and 'slay" is not a noun.
Whomever wrote that obviously knows nothing about role-playing games. Probably it's better that way, we don't need more religious fanatics telling us that we will become homicidal maniacs from throwing a d20.
I think this goes along with witch hunts and stuff. Many communities are so inbred and brain washed. Anything other than being "christian" means you are in league with the devil, and are going to eternal hellfire. I would laugh at this for its comical value, but then I remember stories of what happens to people who are "different" within those communities.
I think someone who takes DnD or any game, song, wrestling move, ect . . . To such extremes has some kind of imbalance to begin with. Let's get serious here there are cooks within every community. Unfortunately people tend to focus on the one or two that go postal every once in a long while, and happen to play DnD.
