Bieng a British Citizen, raised in England, and recently emmigrated to Oklahoma, I must say that there is much more of a violent culture in America, coming from the kid's parents. Let me elaborate before you get angry:
In my city (Tulsa) there was recently a fight between students at my high school. After the fight was broken up, the kid's parents then turned up and started fighting each other. What kind of an example is _this_? Why are we suprised, then, when kids take handguns to high school and start shooting?
This WAVE is an attempt to pass the buck from the parents to the kids - now not only do we encourage violence but we then expect kids to rat on each other in the most disgusting way possible.
