They should show my Xinjiang battle scene and call the news headline: "Lego's War on Terror"

I don't see why it would be deleted...Robin Hood wrote:Methinks that this topic will soon be deleted.
Anyway, I think it's awesome that they ran a story like that. It's something different and quirky, and television programming (especially as of late) is usually such a downer. That's why I don't even bother watching T.V. anymore.
On top of that, the fact that the story was specifically about the little plastic bricks that we all know and love makes the story even cooler. More people should be exposed to the amazing things that can be done with Lego. Most people don't consider Lego to be an art form, when we all know that it clearly is. In this case, the media was trying to demonstrate that. Instead of being branded as immature dorks that still play with childrens' toys, we're being called artists. I say that we should be grateful.
