School Shootings
School shootings are a growing concern throughout the United States. Factors like violent video games, violence on TV, bullying or access to a gun can lead a person to become violent. There are programs nationwide, like Rachel's Challenge, that are dedicated to discouraging and preventing gun violence and school shootings.

I don't think video games contribute to school shootings. I think it has more to do with bulling and how the children are raised. Well put together blog with a lot of information.
I think that video games and shows are not one of the main factors in which cause school shootings. Some of the murderers are usally due to hate or other personal information. Intersting fact, nice job.
We read in a book that video games and TV shows can be causes of shootings
i think programs like rachel's challenge definately help kids stay out of violent situations. Eventhough i do feel that violent movies, media, and video games can influence kids, thats not the only reason.
I agree with you that bullys increase the rate of violence in schools. But, video games are for mere entertainment and i don't feel they contribute to your argument.
