We can rationalize and excuse virtually any type of deviant behavior even murder. The perpetrators are the victims. Victims of their social environment. Victims of substance abuse. Victims of a bad childhood.
Personal responsibility is an outdated concept.
Our deviant behavior is someone else s fault. We can t be held responsible. We stand idly by and accept these concepts because we fear that we might be labeled judgmental if we oppose them. We have completely desensitized a generation of our youth to sex and violence. We feed them a steady diet of violence in all forms of entertainment.
