Unfortunately : violence in the media has two significant kinds of impact on our mental health. On one hand, it leads to increased violent behavior for some people. On the other hand, it numbs others to violence which may lead to expecting or accepting the occurrence of violence in our society. It may in part explain onlookers not intervening to stop violence in public.
