the best paragraph on teen violence ever

These days, youth have the most permeable minds in the entirety of society. They can believe anything if they put their minds to it, or mimic actions if they see it fit. This youthful age group is where the media moguls make their strike: by showing footage of a “real world” fight, wrestling matches, or even crude practical jokes, the youth of today sits in awe of the intense action shots. Television shows and movies aired that portray tactless and brutal scenes obviously introduce students to a different world; a world where they can hit, punch or shoot whoever they can and whoever gets in their way, and it be accepted by everyone else. Images like these can and do influence a lot of youth to use the violence themselves; proving to be a source of the surge of fighting.
