There's a difference between saying violent lyrics cause aggresive thoughts and then extrapolating that the genres of music that sterotypically contain violent lyrics ONLY contain violent lyrics and other genres NEVER contain violent lyrics.
Heck, I'll take a quote from Michael Moore here:
"I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.." - Johnny Cash
I'm trying to change my life, see I don't wanna die a sinner..." - Master P
The conclusions that campaigners always seem to reach in these cases are about as plausible as saying that only stalkers listen to The Police, or only Nazis listen to Wagner.
