No. Homo Sapiens, as a species are naturally violent. Only a certain base of intelligence and, I'm sorry to say, morals passed down by the family someone grew up in, can make someone violent or non-violent. I, myself, (the answerer) play dozens of video games with violent content, including, but not limited to: Halo and its sequels, Fable, World of Warcraft, Ages of Empires, the Call of Duty series, and other "M" rated, violent video games. I also take Martial Arts, for use in self defense. I am very non-violent, even taking into account my bi-polar disorder. What the MAVV (mothers against violent video games) propagates are studies PAID FOR by the MAVV, and therefore support their argument. I think that children who have been bullied,mentally and/or physically abused are more likely to become violent than the average gamer. Watch Bowling for Colombine, which shows that the shooters in the Columbine incident didn't play video games, nor did they play paint-ball before killing all those students, they went bowling, something most people see as non-violent.

It does. Violent videogames offten emulates real life. And Being able to preform violent acts in a video game and enjoying it can't be mentaly sane for our society.

But, we already had a violent society before Video Games were invented. You didnt see anyone playing video games during world war 1.
