As stated in the text, “Do Video Games Lead to Violence?”, Whitney DeCamp, who is a professor in sociology, states that evidence points to either no relation between playing violent games and violent behavior, or there is a very insignificant link. He has also conducted a study of his own, in which the results showed that playing video games, no matter how bloody, did not result in violence. Although games like these could give a person an idea on vicious acts, it does not necessarily mean they’ll act upon them. If savage video games supposedly cause young people to commit horrendous acts, then why isn’t the 97% of children who play them committing these crimes? If the games are causing the violence, then shouldn’t most, if not all, of the people who play them choose to act
