Leading experts feel that violent video games, and the glorification of violence by television, music and movie industries as a leading cause of the increase in gun related violence.
The guns have always been here in the U.S.. People never even kept them locked up years ago, they displayed them on the wall. So what changed. According to Lt. Col D. Grossman who has written several books on the subject, its simple conditioning. We have conditioned our children to kill via the media.
The media glorifies violence ... and if you watch any of shows or commercials for teens...who is the smartest person on the show?
The kids are... the parents are portrayed as stupid, out of touch and inept. We are conditioning them to believe that they should not listen to their elders.
This leads to the Super Preadator theory. That the lack of adult influence will lead the juveniles to develop there own standards of moral conduct.
Kinda like the "No snitching" t-shirts, girls gone wild and the Gang banger mentality.
The future should be interesting....
