Hi,
>>We were warned about the coming of this in the early seventies <<
From prophecy perhaps?
Did you read the response in 156?
I just can't fathom this thinking of young people but I haven't had MTV on cable for 5 or more years so I haven't had a chance to see how bad it has gotten. It's an extra-pay channel and no one is the household is interested but we did have access to it before that and found it troubling, to say the least. Would tune in sometimes while channel-surfing but never stayed long.

No oddly enough I along with other "grammar school" kids were shown a film documentary the effects of kids becoming "desensitized" from watching too much television violence. Back then teachers were teachers and they were dedicated to teaching kids to become strong independant thinkers and productive contributors to society unlike the slacker liberal agenda today.
