As long as violence exists in movies and games it will exist in this world. You're deluding yourself to think otherwise. I'm not saying remove all violent movies, but there will always be violence in this world as long as we continue to consume it like we do.

You have that backwards. Art imitates life. Our art forms are violent because we are violent. Not all of us, of course, but we are, as a species. For all of the violence in art that you are condemning, you fail to notice that in our society, violence is at an all-time
low. Surely, our entertainment activities must be on the right path.
How about we stop looking for scapegoats and blame the individual when he/she falls? And this applies to animals, as well. Johnny shoots up his school because of a defect
in him, not because he played too much Call of Duty and GTA or D&D or listened to too much death metal, etc. It wasn't even because he was picked on or his parents abused him. It was
his defect.
