“A War On Terror board game designed in Cambridge has been seized by police who claim the balaclava in the set could be used in a criminal act. The satirical board game was confiscated along with knives, chisels and bolt cutters, from climate protesters during a series of raids near Kingsnorth power station, in Kent, last week. The game’s creators, Andrew Sheerin and Andy Tompkins, web designers from Cambridge, have expressed total shock at the inclusion of their toy among ‘criminal’ items. Andrew, 32, said: ‘I saw pictures of the board game in papers and was absolutely baffled. Surely no member of the public is going to believe that a board game could be used as a weapon?’” (08/25/08) Link: http://tinyurl.com/6h3552 Filed under: LAND News and RRND News | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
