On September 13th, 2006, Kimveer Gill, a 25-year old from Montreal went to Dawson College and began shooting with an automatic weapon on the students. This dreadful event claimed the life of a teenage girl, and injured 19 other students. Currently, some of these students are still in critical condition. Kimveer then ended his own life by shooting himself in the head.
The event at Dawson College became the theme of the day; from different public media outlets, politicians, or became the subject matter for different social researchers. Everybody with their own social perception, expert, or social-class outlook has stated something. Some are referring to him as being ‘psychotic’, or ‘insane’. Others have begun to discuss the issue of gun control. Or, some refer to Kimveer’s diary where he identified himself as the ‘angel of death’, and that he ‘hates’ life.
However, few people tried to grasp the root of this event. The irony of this case was that alongside the complete vacuum of any real social-scientific study was that on the same day Microsoft Corporation revealed its new game called Wii. Did anybody pay attention to the relationship between this news and the event of Dawson College or not? We do not know. According to the news the video game industry makes $1 billion a year.
Most of the consumers of these games are youth and children. These games only teach violence, acts of anger, and hate-building, as well as destroy feelings, passion, and humanity. But these games for the possessors of capital such as Microsoft and for the anti-humane capitalist system generate enormous profits. Every cent of capital is tied to savagery, and crimes against humanity and human beings. The production of these games is a part of the accumulation of the reproduction of global capitalism, and is but a small amount of the crime against human beings. In order for capitalism to stay alive, human beings must stay in poverty, hunger, vagrancy, war, sex trade, and the trade of organs of children, and in this case the destruction of the spirit of children.
Changing human beings into Kimveer(s) is inseparable from capitalism. To prevent a repetition of the Dawson event the organized working class must fight with capitalism as capitalism is the god that demolishes the souls of young people, transforms them into war machines. We must bring this god of capital down. This is the only way.
