Why do we live in a violent world?

In today's world, families all over the world experience either rape, abuse, and robbery within 24 hours. If you watch the news in the morning the first thing they talk about is the killings in America. Most killings are in the family that you really don't expect or think is going to ever happen to. In today's modern day people get shot by guns to resolve their anger towards other people. Tell me what you think and why.

I choose not to watch the news because so much of it is just violence and not really news at all. There is so much anger in the world because there is so much injustice in the world, and people are just trying to get by; however, that is no excuse! I just wish that everyone could have a basic education, health care, and enough money to support their families..... then maybe we wouldn't have the violence we do.

You are right, sometimes they kill innocent people that don't have anything to do with their anger and that's why there are so many children alone because their families have been killed by people with bad thoghts. I could not understand why this is happening. It is to sad that we cannot live in peace because we are afraid of getting a bullet in our head for no reason at all. We need to have justice, don't we?

Such a sad truth --
I think we have a lot of disconnected people and we forget one another's humanness.

I wish I new why we lived in such a violent world but we do. So I think it's our job to be as responsible and positive as we can be!

I think it is because people are inherently selfish.

I, too, avoid the news except for stories I choose to read online. I feel that I can keep up with current events that way, to make better decisions in situations like voting, without being indunated with such violence.
I think that we all need to work towards better education and health care for everyone, those two things would go *so far* towards getting rid of so much of the violence in our country.

To tell you the truth I just think violence in the world is just gonna get worst! People these days dont care too much about anything But, themselves. I seen too many people get hurt and shot at. It's like trouble follows me every where i go and most of the time I've got nothing to do with it!

There is no reason for the violence in this worls, however there is a way to stop it. To solve a problem, you must first remove te cause of the problem. People are violent because their environment demands it, if you remove the need for violence then there will be no violence but therein lies the problem. To solve this problem those that commit these acts have to be seen as "relinuishing their right to life, by inhibiting the freedoms of others." and so are treated in this way, they should be stripped of their lives in order to preserve the freedoms in other people's lives. these people do not deserve the benefits that get given to those who follow the law.

if it aint bout the color of the gangs its bout money, sex, or drugs. people just want to prove that they are on top and no one can take them down. Its dumb gang violence and gang colors, blue or red. Make us people that trying to have a life that we can have no safe color to wear outside. Kids killing there moms or dad because they dont feel love that is crazy. I live in Colorado Springs and there was this one shooting in a church they killed like 5 people. Then this lady got rewarded a medal for killing those people so we cant stop the violence in this world but if we just stay with our families and rised our kids well the world maybe will be a better place
