The government should control the amount of violence in films and on
television in order to decrease the violent crimes in society. To what extent do
you agree or disagree with this issue?
Recently， the discussion about whether the government should control the
amount of violence in films and on television has become a heated one. People
take diverse attitudes towards this issue. Before presenting my view， I seek to
analyze the issue from different angles.
From some people's point of view， there are many good reasons for
controlling the amount of violence in films and on television. First， violent
films and television can do harm to young people. Because they contains numerous
of erotic， corrupt and provoking episode， which can bring negative influence to
na?ve young people. Moreover， since young people are in the formative years，
they are not mature enough. They always like imitating their idols， no matter
right or wrong， which lead to the increasing of the juvenile delinquents.
Thirdly， violence begets violence. Violent films and television can make people
aggressive and cold-blooded， which enhance the violent crime in society. In a
word， controlling the amount of violence in films and TV effectively can
decrease the violent crimes in society and preserve social security.
Many others， however， take a quite strong opposite attitude towards this
issue. They believe violent media have their positive sides， which should not be
controlled by government. To begin with， there are many valuable education
functions in this kind of films and TV. Because they can reflect the reality，
and we can't imagine that there aren’t any con information but only pro things
in our world. Secondly， if the government control the violent films and
television， it must influence the development of the entertainment industry.
Last but not least， they can prepare children for the adult world and teach them
to cherish life.
As far as I am concern， I strongly believe that the amount of violence in
films and TV should be controlled. At the same time， we cannot deny the
advantages brought by them. And the best policy is to develop the merits of the
violent films and television， while grading and filtering them， describing that
which are not fit for the children to watch.
