London, April 1 (Inditop.com) Primary schools in Britain have decided to air US TV show ‘The Simpsons’ as part of the curriculum in a bid to cut violence.

Children at eight Liverpool schools will watch violent scenes featuring the hit cartoon’s ‘Itchy and Scratchy’ characters who are always trying to hurt or kill each other, reports dailystar.co.uk.

The scheme is run by Support After Murder and Manslaughter (SAMM) Merseyside. SAMM Merseyside chairman Gaynor Bell, said: ‘We are trying to get the message across that any action you take has a consequence.’
