Argument: For Jeff Jacoby, writer of “A Desensitized Society Drenched in Sleaze,” violent entertainment indirectly causes real life violence. He states that even with his highly religious and disciplined background he was “jaded” from exposure to violent TV. he thinks that if he can be desensitized, then anyone can be desensitized. With that thought, Jacoby may have a valid point. If exposed to violent TV for an extended amount of time, it may be able to desensitize anyone, especially if they come from an already broken home or bad neighborhood.
New generation likes to use social media as self advertisement and sometime they share very personal information. By doing this, their future privacy fells endanger and can affect badly in their mind in future which is not a good thing for the society, widely for the nation. Also, social media is hurting our society by spreading misinformation faster than any other media. Author Amanda Thomas shows a statistics in the
Including but not limited to those of religious, race, and sexual orientation. The greatest portion of the remainder were hate crimes based on ethnicity or nationality. When a hate crime is committed, it sends a message to the targeted individual and community as a whole, so that they are aware they are unwelcomed, fearful, unaccepted. The damage done to the heart of the community, will affect the community brutally. Once a message is sent, hate crime is committed, and it has not only hurt the target but the community as well, the message is considered
When one supports injustice, it is threatening to the quality of life they choose to live. It will lead to a violent lifestyle. In Gandhi’s ‘Nonviolent Resistance”, he powerfully explains the critical impingement of violence “Everywhere wars are fought and millions and millions of people are killed. The consequence is not the progress of a nation but its decline. Soldiers returning from the front
The phrase ‘death chariots’ with their association of death, violence and destruction has the intended affect to fear readers of these manic, destructive young teens. It is this appeal to fear which evokes activity in the community to promote a change in society. Wowser also refers to the waste of ‘our tax dollar on a futile and ineffective effort to lower road toll by advertising’ reiterating that the law in place is not desired. This evokes hostility and a want for change in readers. Wowser adds an appeal to community service in saying it is rare ‘to find a young person who is a member of the Salvation Army’.
Unit 4: The 'Less Dead' and Glorification of Serial Killers - Written Assignment There are numerous questions associated with serial murder investigation that bring about criticism, public and media pressure. I am going to start with the media. The media over glorifies everything on TV or in the news paper. I think that the media could start high panic in the community that could be harmful to others and hinder the investigation. Sometimes there are sick people out there that would do what is called a copy cat murder.
The individual's feelings and preferences are not considered. Having people make informed choices and emphasising freedom of choice helps to reduce abuse. Having a choice over even a small part of your care and life means you have control and you’re more independent.

Not only does the person(s) under attack financially suffer, but the city and community loose too. Vandalism which can lead to larger group violence can cost the city substantially in police, fire department, and in some cases hospital/doctor fees (justice.org/hatecrime). The community is left with eyesores like dilapidated buildings or homes due to the destruction. Either money is spent to repair or demolition these structures or the value to the surrounding properties decline. In either instance it is a hefty price to pay because of the emotional instability of an individual or group motivated by
It is necessary to take a closer look at whether or not violence in the media really is responsible for this development and then to examine what censorship may entail before taking such a far-reaching decision. Many concerned people, ranging from worried parents through to reputable psychologists, deplore the ever-present nature of violence in the media, claiming that this is the reason why people are increasingly prepared to commit violent acts. They argue that violence is being propagated as normal or even entertaining. Violence is in the newspapers, on the news, in film plots and in cartoons. Violence is a source of laughter in children's programs; films present it as staple fare; it is served as pseudo-information in sensation-hungry newspapers and on reality TV; and it is even glorified by some musicians in their lyrics and performances.
