WoW is a killer game? That has to be the LEAST violent game I've ever seen on the market in a while. Overreacting much, I thinks.

[WhoDa?]

They said something about that they'll construct for violent games and game sites, like on several child enthusiast sites, an automatic site-block.
Because gaming obviously creates a killer out of a geek.

Counter-Strike banned in Germany? Holy stuff, CSS/CS just lost like 50% of it's playerbase.

Piss poor example. He never played video games. He was just a nutjob.

Hasn't it been proven that video games don't cause violence?  Honestly, people don't just play wow then randomly decide that they are going to go kill people in school.  There are ALWAYS reasons that people would go shoot up a school.  Maybe harrassment or mental issues but video games them selves are never the main cause.  If the video game isn't their to give people ideas about shootings, other things will.  This doesn't solve anything.
