How can we stop the violence?

In the article "Aggression: The Impact Of Media Violence" by Sissela Bok she tells of the violent behaviour of people, be them children, adolesence or adults after they view programs that contain violence.

Bok tells of how the media can affect us, and in most cases it tends to be for the worse. Almost every day there seems to be some violence that takes place that finds its way onto the news, and for some who watch this clips start to have aggressive behaviour shortly after watching. There is no real way to prevent these aggressions other then to stop putting violent scences on the television. But then it doesn't allow for many ratings on the channels its broadcasting on.

Bok uses pathos in her work to get her point across about the violence that goes on in the world after media viewings, it is when she is directing the attention to the media that we instantly think of the news. She then goes on the say that after men viewed "violent pornography the levels of aggression toward women have been shown to go up". There is nothing appropriate about aggressive sex, and all the men walk away with is that its better to inflict pain onto someone ie: rape.

We all tune into the news, read news papers or use the internet to see what is going on in the world, but when we see anything to do with violence it becomes more clear that this world has nothing but violence and yet when we watch the news we see more of it. There has to be a way to prevent the media from broadcasting violence on television. I don't want any child to see what goes on in the world and have them believe that it is okay. They now have an "epidemic of children killing children".

Should we allow our children to see what is going on in the world? The violence that is all around us? Should they have to live in fear of getting killed by another child they're age? What has this world come to?
