Videogames like all mass media have an effect on people, to say it has no effect is just wrong.
mass media has a ton of effect on society. Even those who deny it. There's lot of interesting studies done on the influence of mass media.
That said, banning things to do with free speech is the wrong way to go about. Teaching about literacy with mass media is a solution. It also has benefits in many other areas.
