But are we talking about actual application of violence, or the simple fact (that we all know) that technology technically makes it possible to kill more people in an easier fashion than we could a thousand (or even a hundred) years ago?
I'm not very well learned, I decided my school time would be better spent staring at the wall, but I do believe nukes have rarely rarely rarely ever actually been used against people...

And there would be some out there who could argue that that's all attributed to paranoia, which is much easier spread thanks to the wonders of television, and more recently the 24 hour news networks...
"Someone brought nail clippers onto a plane! Bump the country's terror alert up to 'High (Orange)'!!!"
I myself have never flown, and seem to have the ability to shrug off any serious situation and go back to my nice starin' wall, content in my relative indifference... So *shrug*
