We got a new law in my homecountry. According to this law, Killergames are now illigal to own
for minors. There's no exact definition of Killergames, but who cares. And since I'm no minor,
I can't be really bothered that it's now a little harder for me to get my Call of Duty's and
Halo's. I import anyways.
But what does bother me, is the fact that violent games are now essentially on the same level
as porn, guns, alcohol and smokes. And the "new media", like Websites and Blogs, can now
be shut down too, if they show "material that is harmfull to the youth". Good times.
And all for the sake of those damn politics, who just want to cop out of dealing with the real
issues we have with the youth in this country. Instead they say: "Once we locked away all
those evil video games everything will be fine."
So what next? Do I need to cover the new Call of Duty in a brown bag when I leave the store?

no carrying violent video games or booze in public!
ACTIVATE BROWN PAPER BAG!
Whatever shall happen to my poor, corrupted soul? Fucking daft Germans.
Though of course, the car burnings would probably be blamed on "killer games"... Forget what I said!
Why should the younger generation have to suffer from stupid fossils who are trying to cover up for their sins? Its insane!
LEARN from the past, dont HIDE it!
Germany, you guys really have to get over your war guilt. I know its hard but you'll never progress as a nation, if you remain in fear of everything in popular media you don't understand.
Sure, keep the games, film etc out of kids hands, but do it the fair way, by asking for legal ID and giving adult material warnings, when selling games.
Bans can easily be circumvented by importing, as we all already know.
