They would have to randomly pick people for a study, get them to play violent video games and see who commit's a violent crime and analize how they react in comparisson to people who don't play violent video games, which is very hard to do as people who commit violent act's may try and scapegoat video games as has happened before. Number 5 would require people to be mentaly deranged for this to cause anyone to commit violent acts. Mentaly unwell people are not reliable as they can react unpredictably to even benign stimuli.

I totally believe what you say, but I'm afraid it's just opinion. If you know how can I dispute so much research without looking extremely biased, I'll take it. I don't think this will do
