You can't have a culture of violence, and we do, and think that doesn't have an effect. Sure, the bulk of us might be able to watch Grindhouse, and then play 5 hours of Doom, and then watch CSI, and not shoot up a college. But some of us can't and all it takes is one to kill hundreds. For me the VT message is not so much how many were killed (and each person is truly a tragedy) but how lucky we were it wasn't more. Therefore one question is, do we want a society that celebrates violence in film, video games, and television? It would seem to me that if we want a vice it should be s3x, not violence. That having been said, I totally agree with you; but in addition. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Deploy Web Applications Quickly across the enterprise with ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2 Free Trial http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=RVJU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:232800 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
