The way I hear Rappers nowadays, its no wonder I hear so many 11-14 year olds talking like them and it annoys the living hell out of me. Same thing online when I'm playing City of Heroes. When they are saying things like "wut up my homeyz", I want to strangle them. And then I hear some kids singing about killing wifey, etc..etc...and I never understand how music artists get away with it but I guess they do.

Kids absorb the violence then think its ok to do it themselves because they heard/saw X celebrity do it in a movie or through music. Games can be at fault also because you can play out that violence rather then speaking about it. Kind of a big looparound circle.
