[QUOTE="Bestoutwest, post: 1261783, member: 19397"] Here is a very interesting infographic on mass shootings. There is a massive shift after 1980 to the frequency to these shootings. What's the cause? I'm not arguing that it's more guns, that's idiotic b/c guns have been around for a lot longer than the last 35 years. I'm arguing, rather, that there's a massive shift in the media (video games, movies, music, television) that promotes violence, and violence to an end to some problem that in all actuality is pretty insignificant. Mix in the internet to isolate a person more and more from actual society and promote more of a skewed view, and you've got a recipe for disaster. What's the solution? I'm not sure. Unfortunately, I don't think anyone knows. I think trying to remove guns from society would go about as well as prohibition, though.
