Modern entertainment seems to be full of violent acts. The heroes in action movies are often shown blowing the bad guys to pieces while the audience cheers. Horror movies show young women being butchered by sadistic serial killers, and people go to see those movies in droves. Many video games encourage violent tendencies by rewarding the players with points for every kill. The military has even resorted to using these types of games to train soldiers. Professional sports is rife with macho posturing and agression that often leads to physical altercations and even riots. Much of today's music is full of violent lyrics glorifying violence between gang members, against the police, and against women. What has happened to our collective consciences as a society? It absolutely SICKENS me.
