That's a good question. I want to know what causes this sort of behavior. Were they not raised right? Didn't get enough attention as a kid? Are they just really angry or do they feel like they have to constantly protect themselves from threats? It simply makes no sense to me.

To me neither, ans sometimes i am afraid for the future and my kids when they are grown up

It's getting to be a scary world...but I wonder how much of this has always happened this way. If you read histories, you'll come across crazy accounts of random acts of violence.

But the violence is harder more definitive, more brutal

I can see that. We have more destructive technology now.

And all Those games.....

I wonder if the games cause people to value life less. I don't believe that they actually cause more violence...but they could certainly cause people to think less of committing an act of violence. There are no studies that I know of that show a correlation between violent behavior and video games, but it certainly causes desensitization.

In games but also in films and general all day media and television, ones life is worth so little in Some cases that i think in Some cases people go and figure thats normal these days, look at how many shootings there are, i think that in normal society there are more than one trigger for people already on edge.
