Do video games contribute to violence?

Like who are the guys who are blasting Trump's messages over the media? I think if there is place one should look at are those media discussions about racism, as by trying to advocate "against" anti-Trump "racism", they're spreading racism themselves.

Back to games.  There has to be a psychological effect if someone who is already imbalanced and looking to get out of his life, plays games 24 hours of the day.  At some point his vision of life has to become completely distorted, and if he has guns, it could be just easier for him to "break loose".  If Trump mentioned games as glorifying violence, then I'm sure it didn't come from him.  He must have studied research on it.  Most of what he says he gets from the staff surrounding him.  Or paperwork that was passed to him.

It's possible that people do get reality bent spending countless hours on their favorite games as their subconscious is filled with video games. Some people get angry over a death or huge mistake on a video game (usually in multiplayer) and can start throwing tantrums in real life and punch the wall and put a hole in it or even break their keyboard or whatever else depending on the rage level. But is it really their fault?

Don't seek to fix a problem by patching the leak over and over again. Seek to fix a problem by getting to the root cause of an issue and everything falls into place. I think the root cause of criminal activity is parenting. Our parents raise us to be functional members of society and if they don't do their part then the child can be affected greatly. It is the parent's responsibility to raise their children correctly to not become a criminal in the first place.
