Nice try though. It ain't about black or white, though YOUR "coded language" makes it obvious where you're coming from. This crap is affecting kids from all walks of life...color has nothing to do with it, not even socio-economic class so much anymore, though I do think poorer kids are more at risk.

The Real Housewives, the Real World, Jerry effing Springer from back in the day...all this pap on TV that kids get to watch as a daily menu. You don't think that has an effect?

You think that kids in a suburban high school don't keep up with the latest celebrity feuds? What has Miley said about Nicki? What has whatever pop star of the week said about the other pop star of the week? How about that youtube channel "worldstar" or whatever it is called? Glorifying fights. Woohoo! FIGHT FIGHT!

I have a part time job on the side where most of my co-workers are younger than I. I hear this all the time.

You think this is good for kids to see these examples that are set for them?
