I agree re the silver bullet and how a law is not the solution. I agree that there has been a change in the culture.
However, I think he missed the true reasons behind the change.
Porn and video games, abortion and assisted suicide, social media?
What about television and movie violence? How about the continual stream of violence peddled by the media?
Regardless, these exist around the world and the US is not the only nation to experience the techno shift. The US does however seem to have an awful lot of murders and school shootings compared to other developed nations.
There has been a "shift" but not sure he has the correct cause.
Just my 2 cents.
