Not all by themselves, no. Anyone who says that such "games" have Nothing to do with subsequent behavior either doesn't know what they're talking about, or else is simply lying.

I would invite you to research the subject. Video games can change people's affect for a matter of minutes, but it didn't lead to any sort of aggressive behavior outside of the game. It was likened to people getting competitive while playing sports. There are no observed aggressive behaviors or lasting affect changes.

If you want to read about the lawyer, his name is Jack Thompson.

Let me see if I have this straight.

We are supposed to believe that pretend guns lead to violent behavior but actual guns don't?

I don't dislike black people, that's why. You just think I do. Curtis Jackson shakes his head at you.

Anyways, I don't understand what you're saying. Of course real guns lead to violence if they're in the wrong hands. But what factors are a possibility to make those hands the wrong ones to possess a gun?

That's one of them... What if you have a (step)dad who is really mean to you and your mom... Granted, this wouldn't lead to shooting kids at a school, but you see where I'm going. Also, think about peer pressure. There are many different factors that might lead to someone blowing their lid.

Violent video games don't make people violent but then again I have to admit to wanting to ram the car in front of me and race home blowing through stop lights and flipping people off every time "Are you sure Hank done it this way" plays. Thanks GTA V.
