An Austrian Turkish organization said it is considering taking legal action against Lego for inciting racial hatred and insulting human dignity because of a Lego Star Wars kit which bears similarity to a Muslim symbol. Any thoughts on this?

Screw these Muslim idiots. How stupid can you be. Law suits over a fraction of an inch of bread at subway, over some over paid NFL idiot that gets his head banged, WTF is up do we have to take a look at reform of Frivolous law suits? I say these company's need to start to counter law suits and maybe some will become afraid to sue unless they have a real case. This is just trial lawyers gone amuck.

Personally I hate all religion, its all a bunch of hooey. I am sick of people whining because someone did not talk nice about their fantasy god. Or in this case some idiot is suing over a 35 yo movie. Good grief this is beyond the pale. Muslims need to get over them self and we need to take back the country. I am sick and tired of every little group being offended by what others do. I am offended at what Christians and Muslims do. I don't like any religion but I don't sue over it. Its your right to believe what you want as long as it does not infringe on my rights. Keep your belief in stopping abortion to the pulpit and out of the law. Keep your ideas on gay marriage in the church and out of the public policy realm. Keep your ideas on what is good Muslim practice and out of the arena of what some kid buys as a toy. Frigging religion.

Seems more and more people are developing heightened sensitivity about anything that they can relate to. What a sensitive world we live in. Just sensitive about all the wrong things.

Gold Bond might want to look into formulating anti-sensitivity rash cream to prevent people being sensitive to frivilous things that amount to nothing.
