Anecdote: My kids are preschool age. Obviously we regulate what and how much TV they watch; I don't let them watch violent stuff or stuff that's agressive on TV but occasionally things slip through the net like power rangers or spider man cartoons, etc. I live in the UK and I have noticed that often when they play a game that involves a lot of aggression they put on an American accent, it was amazing the effect one episode of power rangers had. I haven't spent much time in the US but from consuming plenty of US media, it always seems like violence and aggression in general is a big part of American culture and is portrayed as heroic, rather than tragic. I don't think you can change that through legislation.
