I will not agree that playing video games causes kids, even depressed, socially dysfunctional ones, to start killing people any more than heavy metal supposedly did.

However, I will agree that it makes for better sharpshooters. After having never having fired a real gun in our lives, my brother and I impressed a lifelong user of firearms to the point where he wanted to take us duck hunting.
