Subject: Why is music always blamed for violence?
Don't worry this is a short comment.
You've all heard that the people invovled in the Columbine
high school massacre had their actions blamed on Marilyn
Manson elsewhere three people were convicted of murder and
sentenced to death because they wore black and listened
to Metallica.
There are many cases of this sort of prejudice.
But have you noticed that other mainstream artists are never
blamed for any of the other social problems e.g. Craig David,
Atomic Kitten with their songs that seem to glamorise casual
sex are never blamed for sexual crimes or the high rate
of underage pregnancies, especially as they know that the
majority of music is bought by young teenagers?
