RE: No evidence to support link between violent video games and behavior

I think there's more important factors that make someone violent, how you have been treated by your parents for example.
Just from my experience, children copy off what they see to an extent, even if just in a mild way. I remember we used to watch wrestling, then we'd go to school and wrestle. I'm sure probably everyone knows someone in some way who tried to copy off that show Jackass when they were younger.
I think it would be really difficult to do a study on, all this study has found is that there's no evidence to support the link but absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence.
I wouldn't place video games as being high on the things that influence very violent behavior in my opinion though, just that it seems logical to me that EVERYTHING a child watches has a link to their behavior.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
