/^t/Another cause of violence in society may be the bad influence of mass media on the behaviour of, mostly, young people. Poland is flooded with films abounding with violent scenes and gory deaths. Young people have free access to such films. It was scientifically proven that after watching such a film it's much harder for a human being to fall asleep. Their brain is infused with cruel visions and the level of adrenalin stays higher for a long time. Young people being exposed to such films, try to carry into effect what they saw on TV. This resorting to violence gives them power and dominance over their friends. There is for sure a link between the rate of crimes and the amount of expousure to violent films. However, it is not only films which are source of negative stimuli. There are also many music groups like Motley Crew, Gun's Roses and AC/DC whose music has violent implications. Generally speaking, reducing the access to visible or audible violence decreases the violence in real life.
