I don't argue that fiction can influence and has influenced reality for some people.

But I also think there's a whole lot of other factors that tend to go into determining how easily (or not) somebody might be influenced by fiction as well, and anyone out there who believes getting rid of or restricting the fictional item in question will solve the real life problems they're inspiring (not saying that's what you're arguing, just speaking in general terms)...well, that seems equally as naive to me.

It's like the people who blamed 'Twilight' for women getting into abusive relationships. You could take 'Twilight' out of the equation...and women getting into abusive relationships are still going to be a problem.

I'm willing to bet that if you took every piece of popular fiction that romanticizes abusive relationships out of the equation, you'd see a distinct decline in the prevalence of abusive relationships. Not right away, but over the next couple of generations.
