		<description>In Germany &quot;political correctness&quot; is king. Last year, left wing rioters beat up Jews in the German city of Cologne, and German police... watched and did nothing.

There was a time when people in my country where looking up to Germany as the &quot;big brother&quot;, to figure out &quot;How to do it&quot;. Today? We&#039;re laughing at how stupid the Germans are. Their government does with them whatever it wants.

German media has been on a crusade against &quot;killer games&quot; as they&#039;re usually called. Some major TV stations even claimed that raping women is a mission objective in the GTA games. They have, on purpose, re-cut footage and presented players of FPS in a way that they&#039;re all Nazis.

In Germany freedom and democracy are dead. Fascism is back. Just this time it&#039;s painted red and green instead of brown.</description>

		<description>Is being addicted to video games worst than being addicted to drugs or to alcohol which Germany is famous of? I&#039;d rather be addicted to games than to drugs or alcohol and most parents would agree to that. I&#039;ve also read an article: http://www.goarticles.com/cgi-bin/showa.cgi?C=1421576 which pointed a good effect of games in real world specially in times of crisis.</description>

		<description>I&#039;d always had Germany down as country that generally gets things right (probably something to do with the efficiency stereotype). How wrong was I ?!?!</description>
