Legodeath - Twisted Lego Constructs

Mooseboy writes "I searched /. and was suprised to find that there were no articles that referenced legodeath.com. This site has several lego mini-dioramas depicting torture, execution, domestic accidents, and other scenes of questionable taste. I've had a chance to see it, so you may commence the slashdotting!"

    It'd be cooler if they did action movies with the lego characters moving them like clay figures.

      No, that cant be right. Kazaa is only used by pirating terrorists - you cant tell me that peer 2 peer actually has a legal use?!?

    perhaps it hasnt been on slashdot before because theyre pathetic compared to the other useless but nonetheless amazing lego stuff out there...

  3. violent imagery = cry for help by GoatPigSheep · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Anyone who enjoys death, psychotic violent imagery, or gore has serious mental issues. Wether it be with legos, video games, or pictures.

    It is likely the people who created this are using it as a cry for help, and I pray they do not manifest their violent thoughts in ways other than lego. Hopefully they will seek the professional help they need.

    This site was around LONG before the sniper attacks. Just because a couple of psycho fucking losers goes around shooting people doesn't mean that the whole world should stop what they're doing and get all hyper-sensitive about violence. They are P-L-A-S-T-I-C. It's supposed to be F-U-N-N-Y. I consider myself a pacifist, and this does not offend me in any way. And, to go back to the whole "whenever something bad happens we should all get anal about violence", there's a great quote a heard once, that goes something like:

    -Vietnam (Takeover Failure): 3 500 000 Dead
    -Cambodia (Carpet Bombs): 2 000 000 Dead
    -Iraq (Sanctions aftermath) 1 700 000 Dead
    -Dresden (Saturation Bombing): 500 000 Dead
    -Laos (Rain Bombs): 500 000 Dead
    -Guatemala (Guatemalan Genocide): 200 000 Dead
    -Afghanistan (Muslim Genocide): 100 000 Dead
    -Israel (Palestinian Genocide): 100 000 Dead
    -Hiroshima (Atomic Bomb): 100 000 Dead
    -Tokyo (Fire Bombs): 80 000 Dead
    -Nagasaki (Atomic Bomb): 50 000 Dead

    September 11: 3500? Only? Oh, get over it.

    Harsh way of putting it, for sure, but you get the point. These things that happen to the US are horrible, horrible tragedies, yes, but i didn't see anyone in the United States skip a beat when the above things happened to other people. Many Americans have this kind of superiority complex, where they think they are the centre of the Universe, and that everybody else in the world should feel sorry for them whenever they are "picked on".

    Could you explain to me how you so conveniently leave out communist and other totalitarian atrocities, which are in much greater numbers? Not to mention the fact that some of the casualties you do list are questionable as being labeled genocide. The only reason I can see for this perversly skewed selection is that you hate democracy and the western world and want anything else to take its place. If you had listed a more balanced tally, it would have been interesting.

    As it stands now it is just an attempt to induce emotional responses in people in line with some anti lberal, anti democrat sentiment, in the hope that the slashdot readership will only look at your info. Maybe it worked with poor peasants in North Korea who did not have the freedom of information to find out these things for themselves, but thankfully we can all get ourselves a more balanced view of the world than from the obvious troll that is the parent of this post.

    It's pretty sickening to see somebody use other peoples death and suffering as an excuse for peddling the death camp of totalitarianism, which is by omission and obvious bias, what your post does.

    Uhhh... i believe that i mentioned that i saw this quote somewhere; it is not mine, i took it from somebody else's post on a forum that i've been known to visit. I'm very much aware that there are many other examples that could have been used, and most likely some of these numbers are probably incorrect as well. The point i was trying to make was the fact that the United States lives in such a distorted world, where every time some little thing ("little" in this sence used in comparison to other things, such as those listed in my post) happens to them, everybody acts like they live in such a harsh, cruel world.

    I live in the United States, and i by no means hate the Western world, nor do i support socialism. I just think that the US has lost touch with who they are and what they stand for, and the fact that there are indeed other people living in this world.
