lose all emotions and will have no sympathy to the victims of crime. They might also think

that it is funny and laugh at people just as they would if they were watching

television.(Official AAp Webpage)

Violence is not only in cartoons it is also in movies like Austin Powers the Spy

Who Shagged Me. The name itself has a hidden meaning, the word shagged is not

appropriate. Their one bit in the movie that shows a woman being shot, blown up with a

bazooka, and thrown out a window. When the bit is over Austin asks her why don?t you

want to die? Another bit shows a rocket in the shape of the male genitalia and is then

described in many forms. A child may see their parents laugh and repeat these words in a

place where they should not be spoken. What if the child finds a gun in their parent?s

drawers and decides to shoot their brother or sister? No longer would it be funny and the

child may become traumatized. Parents, not only the networks, should take the time to

explain to their children that it is only make-believe. This can prevent a horrible accident

from ever occurring, because now a child knows better.

Violence is not only on television it is also on the radio and the music people like

to hear. Many songs portray women as low creatures that are beaten by their pimps or

how drugs, alcohol and guns are ?cool? and solve every problem. their are times when a

person turns on the radio and does not notice what the lyrics mean. While the music is on

a child can be listening and slowly will begin to decipher what the singer is implying. As

the Child begins to make sense of what the singer means they might end up practicing

what their role models sing. They might use drugs or commit acts of violence because the

singers do it in their songs. Before a parent even realizes what has happened their child

might have become a menace to society.

Another reason that evil and violence is spread so easily through television and

radio is because all the violence is justified. This means that all the fighting is done in the

name of justice and good in other words good vs. evil.(Official Edmontonjournal

child did something wrong. Though it is wrong a child feels glory and happiness because

they are doing what their violent super heroes would do.
