Is it really that bad?

I was reading a study done on the Columbine shooting in my Police Administration Class and how the two students who decided to kill 12 and injure 37 others were influenced by music as well as other media. Got me thinking though, can music or other forms of media (movies, video games, whatever) be that strong of an influence in our lives? Think of how music/movies/video games has impacted your life for better or worse and talk about it...

  1. well its very easy to give in to how out couture says how to act and dress and even what friends to have and its really hard to feel like the only one to stand up and say, no, i'm following God and i will listen to him over media.epically in public school i was always made fun of bc i didn't dress immodestly or,
    cuss i did nt do lots of things that plp said was cool and it was hard but ya i defiantly think its easy to be influenced by media

  2. agreed. It's weird that some music i listen to makes me all pumped up and ready to take on anything (rock), and some music calms me down (worship). It's so weird. It has a profound impact on me
