"....fatal stabbing of 14-year-old Stefan Pakeerah, whose attacker was said to have been obsessed with a game called Manhunt, prompted a campaign by his mother to have violent titles banned."Somebody tell that mother that making a choice to kill someone does NOT spawn after playing a game called "Manhunt", it is a problem that is there loooooong before that (try parenting). If the kid didn't have a video game system he would have found something else to fuel his craving for violence. Morals teach a child right from wrong, not video games.
