People are so worried about what their children watch now all of a sudden. Some parents think that video games, rated R movies, newscasts, and graphic TV shows are morphing their children into killers. By doing a little research, watching TV, being a movie fanatic, and also being a teenager (that is supposedly so susceptible to media violence) one could easily formulate some ideas of his/her own. To take it a step further one could easily gather some expert opinions to show that media violence is not what society’s problem is at least not directly (Marks). The government and the people associated with it have to stop blaming violence on the media and stop some of the real sources of the problem on which they can have an impact on. �

�In the United States, approximately two million teenagers carry knives, guns, clubs or razors. As many as 135,000 take them to school everyday” (Grossman). Why in the world doesn’t the government put some more emphasize on stopping this? It seems that by putting blame of the media, and drawing the blame away from themselves, they can use their ideas to campaign for high offices on our government. By promising to fix the supposed media violence problem they gain offices, but never get to the real core of the problem. Without guns in the schools, school shooting could not occur. Teenagers are able to bye enough weaponry to arm a small country if they desire. The government needs to stop using their mouth so much and use a little muscle to lead a major and successful campaign against the accessibility of guns to children.
