Ban on violence in movies

Violence is becoming a very big problem in our community. Many experts say that the violence has its roots in movies and computer games.
There are a lot of aspects, which prove that violent movies should be banned or censored.
Firstly, in a lot of movies the violence is not realistic anyway. People are loosing so much blood, which can’t be inside of a body. They were stabbed by a fork, killed by an electroshock or died of a mad killer. Such situations are so rarely and exaggerate and most of the people aren’t so much mentally ill and kill their enemies because of anger or boredom.
Secondly, Walt Disney produces one successful movie after the other. That shows; non violent films are successful, too. Many families prefer family movies, which can be watched by little children, too.
In addition many murder in our community based on a movie. Movies give a lot of ideas how to kill people. A couple shot persons, because they think it’s cool. They liked the film “natural born killers”. There was also a group, which set fire in a tube, this action based on a scene in a film.

There are a lot of arguments, which prove that violence in films doesn’t influence our behaviour.
Most of the people don’t know a killer, that’s one important evidence. The majority of people don’t get violent, only by watching a film. I think the audience couldn’t change their mind, because of a film and turn into murderer.
The script writers exaggerate. The scenes are such brutal and clever, it would be too difficult to imitate the killings. People won’t copy such crazy murder, because if you are angry, you will kill your enemy so fast you could.
Violence is also a natural instinct. It protects us and helps people to defend their own lives. You can’t switch off instincts, they are normal but people have to learn to control your emotions. We don’t turn into a non violence society, just because we don’t watch violent films. Violence accompanies us in the news, in games and in our community.
I think there are a lot of violent films, but they shouldn’t be banned. The best thing would be, if the movies are censored. There should be stricter controls and adults should protect their children from too much violence in films.
