When a society glorifies violence on our streets, violence against our police, and violence against our children (and I view the sexual mutilation of children as acts of violence), it stands to reason that there may be individuals influenced to act out on their own that which they are exposed to.
Ever seen one of the video games your children play? Points are scored by how much mayhem you are able to inflict on the enemy, with graphic blood and body parts flying off in all directions. ‘Action’ movies produced by Hollywood regularly include gratuitous violence and explosions that seem to get larger and more destructive with each cinematic release.
