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.

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.

Sums up my point quite well.
