We all studied in General Paper about the media. The media is one of the culprits to rising violence in teens and others in society. In this new age where almost everyone has a computer, it is inevitable for most children to be exposed to their first computer games. As they grow older, simple games such as Pinball and Solitaire would be too boring for them. With the availability of action packed, adrenaline racing games such as Doom 3 and Counter-Strike, young gamers start to embrace the gore and killings from the games. As time passes, these gamers get desensitized to the blood, gore and violence in these games. In fact, the demand for violent games such as these are on the rise! This is indeed shocking.

So what are the impacts of a desensitized teenage society? You've heard of the Columbine High School shootouts. You've witnessed the massacre at Virginia Tech. Are these not evidence of desensitized teenagers and people? The duo from the Columbine High School are indeed avid gamers. They were into the game Doom and actually designed a map identical to their school prior to the shootout. However, we cannot put all the blame onto the media and games for the shootouts. Society should be just as guilty for these tragic incidents. Society has carried out "killings" to bad people, but the word bad is subjective to individuals.
"Why do we kill people who kill people to show people that killing people is wrong?"

The media has dramatised killings. Society has accepted the killings. This could create a false mentality in people that bad people should be killed. THat's bad...
