How do we know video games aren't partly to blame? To me it seems unlikely they are to blame, but I have no proof. I don't play or create games so I don't have any direct stake in this discussion.
Most arguments I hear from gamers use plausible, and even persuasive, theories on why games wouldn't contribute to mass shootings, but I don't recall hearing any empirical evidence backing them up. And the older I get, the more I find that plausible theories and reality don't match up often enough to be fully convinced.
