Honduras bans all violent games and toys

Honduras has blamed the rise of violent youth-gangs called "maras" on violent toys and games. Starting in June, all violent playthings will be banned on the island in the country (thanks, Wayne). The Reg points out that with 53 percent of Hondurans living below the poverty line, it's hard to imagine that the dirt-poor maras are going home from a night's wilding to chill with their PS2s and a lickle bit of the old first-person-shooter ultra-high-rez-violence.
