I agree. Its being made a scape goat because society is going down the pan. In the 70's punk was to blame, in the 80's it was heavy metal, in the 90's it was Doom and Duke Nukem and in this decade is GTA type games.

Maybe if society looked at the reasons why people rebel and need escapisms they can better understand why people get violent and go postal or like rebelious past times i.e. punk rock or heavy metal.
