Life is what really f-cks people up. Cartoons, music and video games play little affect in my opinion.
However... real life movies/TV/video games where you sit and watch someone die does desinsitize people. It's becuase you know it isn't real, but subconciously you think it's real becuase of it's life like qualities. I mean after sitting and watching realistic blood gushing out of someone for a while the "shock value" wears off, and you become used to seeing real blood and death. Well, that's what I think...
