Do you think movie scenes like this one could be partly responsible for mass shootings?

6. I think guns are a much bigger cause of violence

The data is pretty sketchy on whether violent media leads to violent acts, while being exposed to violent media certainly has an effect on people there is no evidence that the effect is ever so strong as to cause people to kill. When someone shoots up a school they clearly have deep personal problems and it is highly unlikely that violent media was the cause of those deep problems. That is not to say violent media does not have any effect, but it is probably only a tiny factor in a much bigger problem.

The fact is that the kids were not killed with movies they were killed with guns, no matter how many times the killer watched the Terminator he would not have had the ability to pretend to be the Terminator if he did not have guns.
