There are countries around the world where we have seen an increased number of shootings than before, and many think that the primary reason behind
this
 is that many
people
 these days keep weapons like guns and pistols at home;
however
, I disagree with
this
 statement because there are other reasons for
this
 scenario as well which I shall discuss in my essay. The first and foremost reason for my disagreement is that;
however
, it is an inevitable
fact
 that many individuals have guns at home, but
this
 is not the only reason for increased shootings. Media, television, illegal use of weapons and drugs which
people
 watch in movies, and video games, all these factors influence a person in a negative way and
also
 make them aggressive in their behaviour, which later excites them for wicked activities like shooting and in
fact
 murder.
Moreover
, many children and adults play video games these days which have violent actions like shooting, stabbing, and killing, which leads to aggression in them, and
this
 behaviour makes them stubborn,
for example
, Pubgee, Angry
birds
Capitalize word
Birds
show examples
, and so on.
In addition
 to that, peer pressure and family circumstances could contribute to activities like shooting. Teenagers and youngsters when swayed by their fellow mates,
then
 could result in unethical behaviour, so young
people
 indulge in shooting and in
fact
 in other crimes as well.
Besides
this
, negative family situations where
people
 suffer from depression-like symptoms can result in
shooting
Fix the agreement mistake
shootings
show examples
. In conclusion, increased shootings across different countries are not only
due to
 the
fact
 that
people
 nowadays keep more guns at home, but other factors like negative influence from media, movies, and computerised games,
also
 peer pressure and family situations can contribute well to shooting.
