I stumbled across this story whilst browsing thesun.co.uk (original article: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article2002041.ece).  It seems that some clever fellows have decided to modify the famous lego man and produce some characters of a more sinister nature.

A swathe of religious leaders are clamouring to have these toys banned.  Apparently, the glorify terrorism and the holocaust.  I don’t see it personally.  Laughter is a universal medicine that heals many wounds and cures many malodies.  When I saw these, I laughed.  I thought themfunny.  Are we foverer bound to complete solemnity over these subjects?  Is a lego character going to turn some 8 year old child into a suicide bomber?  No.  It’s not.   I remember being confronted by a bully at school, threatening to pound my face in over some triviality.  I laughed in his face. and pushed passed him.  I never had another days trouble from him.  That’s my opinion – what’s yours.
