Another opinion, based on a selective use of mostly American studies on the relationship between media and violence, institutionalised by Consumers Association of Penang (CAP), suggests that the central agency causing the problems within the Tamil community, in particular gangsterism, stems from the Tamils watching Tamil cinema.
