These days, the amount of brutality in media is growing. While some people argue that
this

 trend will undoubtedly lead humans to dangerous future, others claim that it has no damaging effect on the society. I believe that in most cases, media violence doesn't affect people's behaviour.
Firstly
Linking Words
, I think that people act from their motives, regardless what they see on the television.
That is
Linking Words
 to say, if someone intends to do harm to somebody,
that is
Linking Words
 not because of watching TV or playing computer games, but due to that person's character and education.
Although
Linking Words
 it is generally considered that violent media accustoms viewer to cruelty, I doubt
this
Linking Words
 opinion. In my view, reasonable and intelligent people treat others humanely irrespective of what they see or hear in fictional stories.
Moreover
Linking Words
, video games and television may even reduce social violence by providing a safe outlet for aggressiveness.
In other words
Linking Words
, truculent people may fight in virtual reality
instead
Linking Words
 of evincing their combative spirit in the real world.
This
Linking Words
 may not only help those people, but
also
Linking Words
 reduce the level of social violence in long-term perspective.
Finally
Linking Words
, despite many claims and assumptions about the negative effects of television and computer games I have never seen any proven connection between violent media and illegal activities in social life. Taking everything into consideration, I would say that brutality in contemporary media has no substantial influence on people's behaviour. Television and computers are not the main factors that shape personal character, and they can even be useful in reducing the level of truculence.
