I did type in the other thread that I found a quote from someone in the online news section that the counter culture revolution of the '60s and their rejection of the social mores and values of the prior generation also contributed to a decaying society. I haven't looked into it yet by searching for studies. But this would make sense since the '60s was about, "Fuck the man, fuck authority, fight the power, free love, etc." Looking back it was a decade of decadence and debauchery, from illicit drug use to open sex, etc. Not to mention in America the Hayes code for movies was lifted, meaning that they can show more explicit sex scenes and violence on television and movies. You can say the 60s really changed and shifted the conservative nature of societies like America and the UK into a radically different place. And maybe what we see today is a result of discarding many of the conservative social mores beginning in the 60s about behavior and respect.
I don't see how any of those changes were bad.
If a million people listen to a rap/rock song and one is inspired to murder because of it. He's a mental. Fact. The music/film/art isn't the problem.
You're wrong. Fact.
Social factors play a series part in behaviour. The problem if you want to call it that is that there are many factors at work and not all will have the same impact as others.

For men, this loss of intelligence may well be exacerbated by the vision of the opposite sex in bikinis. A 2008 study for The Journal of Consumer Research concluded that merely looking at women in beach garb “instigates generalised impatience in intertemporal choice”.
In layman’s terms, men’s judgment and self-critical faculties are compromised, and, in worst-case scenarios, they will propose to (or proposition) the first girl who winks at them.

By observing 300 kids out of a world population of 6 billion, they've proved Starsky & Hutch fans are prone to driving offences and shoving.

Different times
I was born in '81. And the first playstation came out in '94 and the internet really became popular in America around 1996 (when I was 15) with America Online for the dial up. I had all that. And so did a lot of kids in my neighborhood, you can say it was a well off neighborhood financially. But one thing about this community was that parents were pro-active in their children's lives. My high school is considered to be one of the best public high schools in the nations that yearly has kids getting accepted into America's best universities like Harvard, Yale, MIT, Caltech, UCLA and other schools on their academic merits. This community has produced educated and well rounded individuals. So what was it? I say the parenting was the catalyst.
My last child was born in '80 and CompuServe was better AOL by far. :cool:

Peer pressure huh? Sorry but if tens of thousands of people my age were killing themselves, would not make me follow along to the grave.

I'm not excusing their actions and I don't really understand it, but mob-mentality is a very real thing.
Here in Vancouver, thousands of otherwise law-abiding young people decided to destroy their own city after a hockey game. A huge number of them simply could not explain their actions, and said they just got caught up in what was going on. It's something that is corroborated by social scientists and psychologists and I'm inclined to believe them.
It doesn't excuse people for doing what they did, but it does help to explain it.
Re: Fair or Not? Family gets evicted from council home because son was a rioter
To be honest it is fair , and i would evict anyone who has kids when they cant pay for there up keep.
Tell me why as a taxpayer its my problem to house - feed and clothe these boils on the ass of humanity ?
As far as im concerned throw the lot of them out on the street, give house holders the right to defend their property and if they come to rob you , then we can shoot them.Give more power to the police , and stop the soft justice system , throw out the human rights bill. Lets get this country back on the rails , and lets all put a stop to the people who are bringing us down.
Work houses - labour camps -and public stocks , bring them all back .
The End.
