THE GLAMORIZED PROTRAY OF VIOLENCE BY MEDIA IS THE REASON OF INCREASE IN CRIME.
Attraction towards the thrill is in human instinct. Thrill, when portrayed with glamour and heroism, puts deep impact on the human character and he is attracted to present himself in the same manner without realizing the difference between crime and heroism. The violence presented in movies and other sorts of entertainment caused the increase in crime. There has been an umber of examples when the thieves and burglars have confessed that they had taken the idea from movies. Therefore, it is a fact that media is mainly to blame for the worldwide increase in crime.

I am most grateful to you all for the argument, on my attempt to stere the thoughts of the readers.
The impact of a film can be so far reaching!
I go along with Mary that the main problem is the education. Let's be a little bit more open minded. Anyway I agree that this cases exist.
I can't agree.
Lack of education is the main problem here. Nobody is violent just for watching violent movies or games, that's a lame excuse, sorry. Someone is violent because he/she hasn't been instilled certain values, or he/she comes from a hostile environment, or most of the times it's just a psychological problem (people who just can't feel EMPATHY. And the feeling of empathy is what differences a non-violent person from a violent one)
I've been watching and enjoying super violent horror movies since I was teenager, and I'm the less violent person I know (I can't even step on an ant or spider) Because it's pretty clear to me that's just entertainment. A 'normal' person knows the difference between 'real life' and 'fiction', people are not stupid. So I think you just can't blame media here, that's too simple.
Exactly, media is responsible for the increasing crimes in the societies. Most teenagers with low mental esteem try to copy the heroes those they watch in the movies. And it leads towards their destruction!
