You can't blame it on video games either. I'm a gamer and I've never shot a gun at somebody. I've shot a gun but not at anybody. It's the individual and the parents. If the gun is in the house it's easy to talk yourself into using it.

When I lived in the city around my block there were like 3 gangs so there was alot of violence. But my parents were (and still are) doing a great job parenting. I guess growing up in an environment like that kinda keeps you away from drugs and gangs. It builds character. Teaches you how to survive.

I'm only 14 :D and people say I'm so mature and smart. I made it to 14 (almost 15) by staying off the streets and respecting people. I know 14 isn't old but I could be dead if I didn't use my head.

But back to school. I live out in the country now. But the school system is worse out here. Nobody gets shot or got stabbed, but people feel like they can do anything in a nameless town. People fight, sell drugs, drink, and do tons of illegal things. I see people throw their lives away daily. Some kid recently got arrested and is in lock up for 2 years for doing stuff he shouldn't. Another kid has been locked up for 3 years now and he's not gonna get out for another 2.

There's more constructive ways to deal with anger and boredom. Sports, Computers, Art, and Video Games are just a few examples.

I gave one of my friends a speech like this and now he's finished his rehab and he's clean :)

Kudos to you! Finally someone with common sense in this world. :) You seem much more mature than most other people.
You're right, how your parents raise you does tend to effect the way you act. My parents introduced reading when I was little (lyle the crocodile ftw), and encouraged learning; and here I am, a student who gets all As and loves to read.

Yay! I love Kudos bars :-) lol Common sense isn't really too common anymore in society. Kids need to learn how to deal with their problems. Bringing in an AK won't do anything. How does a kid get hold of one anyway lol. I'm just waiting for someone to bring in an RPG to school. That's when we know the world is too messed up to fix.

Theres not literal SCHOOL shootings, but there's people that get shot on the busses, on the street, and on there way to school and such. Everyone gets busted for drugs, daily. So it's no big surprise to hear that someone got shot, killed, or is locked up for drugs. Daily occurance around here. You don't get shot, unless you deserve too. Thats why I don't mixed into that shit! ;)

So mostly, it's only the drug-dealing, type of crowd that get into the gun fights. Lol.
