"The epitome of Stone is Natural Born Killers, in which he criticizes the sensationalism of violence in popular culture by...making one of the most sensationalistic, gratuitously violent films in movie history. Thereby becoming a shining example of the trash he thought he was cleverly criticizing." - Jazz inmate

"It was embraced by the MTV generation as a cult classic in the way these same chumps would soon embrace Tarantino, further advancing gratuitive violence in popular culture."
Now, I think you're being too harsh on Tarantino. I don't find him to be in the same league as Stone. Unlike Stone, he does care about his characters, and don't use them simply as tools for engaging in 'chain yanking' like Stone.
