Quite easily. It's been proven that sexual content can affect the developing brain and damage a child psychologically. The same has not been definitively proven for violent video games.
Case in point: me. I played plenty of violent games since I was 13 or so, and even did 4 years in the Marines. I've never had the slightest inclination to go on a shooting spree and kill innocent people, or even beat people up, or anything like that. Also, my group of around 15 friends had a very similar experience (though only a couple joined the military) growing up and none of them have turned into abusive people (quite a few are down right passive).
