Dutch Violent Gaming Legislation Looms?

GamePolitics has coverage of debate over the future of violent videogames in the Netherlands, based on a Dutch article on gaming site Bashers that speaks of comments by Dutch Minister of Justice Ernst Hirsch Ballin about seeking criminal prohibition of extremely violent imagery, including videogames. They reference an article on Control suggesting this is based on 2007 book called Media Violence and Children by Peter Nikken, and another Control article in Dutch indicating MP Tofik Dibi seems to oppose this move. There is also a Dutch Stop the Burning Book 2.0 petition to register opposition to such legislation.
