for the record

[keryx]

From the CDC (which is a useful source of weekly factoids), some factoids that semi-prove what I say about teen violence: it's on the decline.

So, next time someone tells you kids these days are getting scarier and scarier, please knock them upside the head. Or, um... just point out that evidence might indicate what's actually happening is we're getting more paranoid. The kids are actually less violent at school than my cohort.

It's the video games, I tell ya.
