Violent video games and desensitization
I'm not sold on this being the reason for the violence. Every generation has dealt with violence. I think it is an over all moral degradation in society due to parenting issues, religion stepping back a bit, certain societal moral rubicons crossed over, etc...as in there are some thing you just don't do and some places you just don't go, but many of these walls have been broken down into moral relativism. To me, it is a whole package of things that contribute such as all that I mentioned.
I grew up in the 80's and we had some violent games. Back in the day Westerns had all sorts of killing. The family unit was stronger years ago though. Morality was stronger over all...leading me to conclude there is more to this violence than just the violent games and such.

I can agree with that.

However, in the 80s less people were exposed to violent games.
If 1 out of every 1 Million carries a marker for drug addition and only 2 million use, you will have maybe 2 may 3 hooked after a few doses. Multiply that times 300.
I'm not suggesting that it's a lone factor, but I do know it's a larger factor than a gun that is an non animated object.
