Why are young people so prone to vicious violence and lacking anything close to a conscience nowadays?

Update:

Daniel, I am not suggesting that ALL young people resort to this kind of stuff. I'm just asking why members of younger generation seem to resort to such violence over some pretty petty stuff. The attached is just one video I picked (out of many) to illustrate my point.

    Because no one cares about anyone else anymore. Parents aren't involved in their kids life like they should be. And most parents don't teach their kids about respecting others and that becomes a big problem sometimes. Sometimes people can only take so much before they blow

    God and parents have nothing to do with it

    I haven't been to church in years and i don't go around doing stuff like that.

    Its just the person, and a lot of teens have pint up anger and just don't know how to deal

    How can you stereotype all young people like that? Those are TWO young people. And what about the adult security guards and their consciences? I suppose it was "okay" that they just stood there?

    "as security guards stood by"

    Give me a break.
