Religious leaders in England are up in arms because an American company has put a line of LEGO toys in the market with a very bizarre and offensive theme that glorifies violence.
Made by BrickArms, the plastic adapted LEGO toys come in the shape of masked terrorists, Nazi storm troopers and military figures. These violent models come heavily armed with grenades, rocket launchers, sub-machine guns, and a plethora of other miscellaneous weapons.
I think that these really disgusting 'toys' should not be on the market. We have enough violence as it is.
