So now I ask the question, how can a small number of people in our society say things like video games, movies, and music are what's causing all the voilence in the world, when the mainstream media puts stuff like this up as headline news in one single day? Doesn't that seem hypocritical to you?

People in our society, who blame any media outlet for violence, are retarded.
Art imitates life, not the other way around. And the news just reports things that are going on. But, bad news sells more. Violence sells. Kind of like that Tool song "Vicarious", ever hear it?

and if they're going to put bans or restrictions on movies/music/games, they have to include media too

uhh, how about just "no bans"? Sound good? I'm sure that's something you would support.
But I do get your point. And the way in which they censor things is also kind of funny.
You can have that dateline "to catch a predator" read transcripts, about sodomizing a 13 year old boy. But you can't say "Holy shit, that's fucked up!!!" The second one would get bleeped.
Also, on Dr. Phil....during the day, I once watched a show about a grandfather molesting his 6 year old daughter. That is allowed on the air....but Janet Jackson's pasty covered boob, causes a frenzy.
It's odd. I'd rather just get rid of the restrictions, and let the free market decide.
