Quote:
Venezuela's violent crime rate is such that the government of President Hugo Chavez stopped releasing complete annual murder figures in 2005, but Justice Ministry figures published last year claim an average rate of 152 homicides a week, or 7,900 for the year. But critics of the bill have dismissed what they call a PR stunt designed to appease anxious parents.


They've got bigger problems than video games :shock: :roll:

It's Venezuela. It's a backwards socialist country with an idiot in charge. Much like Cuba.

What'd be funny is after imposing the ban, the rate of murders goes up!
