Bavarian interior minister Günther Beckstein commented, "It is absolutely beyond any doubt that such killer games desensities unstable characters to violence and can have a stimulating effect."

"...absolutely beyond any doubt...?" I beg to differ. Not to reiterate my comments on every one of these news pieces, but these types of "banning" style laws do NOT address the core issues involved. Take the same money and spend it on educating parents on (a) what games are about and (b) how to be a better parent, and the problem (along with many others) will get better on its own.
