I just read an article claiming games like GTA can cause kids to become violent, using guns blabla etc. We all know that discussion.
Then you guys have a lot of discussion about your gun laws, should people be allowed to have their own guns etc. Just had two big shootings this week if i'm correct probably starting that discussion again...
So how is MMA treated in American mainstream media? Is it still looked upon as a barbaric sport or is it kinda accepted? And is there a strong lobby against it because it could potentially cause people to get violent like GTA is supposed to be?
Just curious because i only see snippets on youtube mainly about boxing being better than mma and vice versa... but not so much on how bad of an influence mma could potentially be..
As always, English is not my native language so sorry if i made some errors.
