The Scene
In a world where incidents are bound to happen, there is someone or something responsible for that occurrence. Since there is a culprit that is bound to be at fault, society labels a wrongdoer as a scapegoat for whatever occurs. The fact that society appoints whatever is to blame doesn't necessitate that the classification is accurate.
In this world where violence is occurring and its presence is now demonstrated through sports, society through media figures and general opinion has tabbed many causes for the violence occurring within society and sports today.

The Players
There are many sides with different opinions on the roots of violence in society and do not not necessarily represent my views as I am merely presenting the sides and their arguments.
One side of the argument is quick to blame the parents for violence and claim that it was the parent's job and responsibility to keep their children from becoming violent by teaching them what is morally right and wrong. There are the media figures on TV that race to blame graphic TV, video games, and movies for making violent impressions upon young children even though scientific evidence has demonstrated that these forms of electronic media do not increase the tendencies of violent actions by children. Other arguments include the idea that children are simply learning from their role models such as the athletes they on TV who get into brawls during games or the parents who get into scuffles with other parents or the referee at their child's youth game. More scientific theories argue that since our country is engaged in a period of war, then the violence in society will increase as an effect. The subject of winners and losers get thrown into the mix as well since some argue that our society gives a reward to violence in terms of notoriety and attention. Then, there is the side that will argue that violence is simply in human nature and that the strongest will fight to survive.

All of these argues just go to demonstrate that society cannot even correctly agree upon the causes of violence and its reported increase in our lives today. Until society as a whole can agree upon a reason or reasons as it could be a combination of the above or even something else completely, the problem of violence will not be able to be completely solved.
