zhi yang's new thesis statement

ignorance of life value and deficicent sense of self-defending cast shadows to the mass killings which claims 13 thirteen lives.
or
the inescapable exposure to the violence and lack of psychological counselling compel compel eric harris and dylan klebold to vent irrationally by killing mass people.

i don't know which one is better. looking forward to professor's comment.

I'm not clear how the first is an argument, exactly. Can you clarify?

The second has a somewhat different issue--the two problems (exposure to violence and lack of counseling) are very far apart and would be hard to blend in one paper. In fact, both would probably be hard to explore in one paper. Still, wondering about the media's role in all this would be very fitting for the course.
