Violence in society increases when more violence is shown on television. To what extent do you agree or disagree?.

In recent times, a
lot
of debate is going on regarding the role of
television
in increasing crime rate. Some argue that
this
is due to the increase in the amount
in
Suggestion
of
violence shown on
television
and I completely agree on
this
. It is undoubtedly a fact that
television
and the media have a
lot
of impact on the society. The increase in the amount of violence shown has a detrimental effect on people, especially the youngsters.
Firstly
, they tend to mimic
what ever
one or some or every or all without specification
whatever
is shown and
hence
try to copy the same in real life.
For instance
, a
lot
of young students are killing their classmates just because they are angry at them for silly reasons and
this
is how some hero or star in a series or movie did.
Besides
, they feel they will be considered as adults only if they did
such
thing and
hence
follow whatever they, without thinking about its side effects.
Moreover
, few even consider
this
as a way to prove that they are superior and everyone should obey them.
Secondly
, a
lot
of offenders now are under aged and they don't even know what they have done is right or wrong.
Nevertheless
, children usually grasp everything quickly and someone should be there to guide them on the wrong deeds. If the see some violence
in
Suggestion
on
the
television
or social media and if no one is there to correct them, they will unknowingly commit the crime without realizing the punishment or the impact it has.
For example
, the recent shootings
in
Suggestion
at
a school in the United States are committed by kids who are manipulated by criminals. Being innocent and vulnerable, they are easily becoming the prey here. To conclude,
television
has a major role to play in the present society. In my opinion, the contents shown has to be censored properly so that it will not cause harm to anyone and there should be a rule not to show violent shoes or clips during peak hours.
