Several legislators claim that the public finds many current movies so violent as to be morally offensive  However, these legislators have misrepresented public opinion  In a survey conducted by a movie industry guild, only 17 percent of respondents thought that movies are overly violent, and only 3 percent found any recent movie morally offensive
These low percentages are telling, because the respondents see far more current movies than does the average moviegoer
fails to consider the possibility that violent movies increase the prevalence of antisocial behavior
