		Re: LEGO Group and Disney Consumer Products Announce Building Sets Inspired by Pirates of the Caribbean
(...) And they often are. How many times have you seen complaints about how the Town theme largely consisted of a 3-year repeating schedule of police, fire department, and hospital stuff? Only in the last couple years have they started to really (...) (14 years ago, 5-Dec-10, to lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.pirates, FTX)

I did not even come close to saying that yellow representations of darker-skinned characters would be as repulsive (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: What would a kid think? (Re: Concerns with Racial Attitudes and Lego)
(...) I hope I understood Eric's argument (that traditions aren't necessarily good, and often are changed for the better), and I totally agree with it. I even grabbed a sense of humour, and had a (wry) smile on my dial the first time I read his (...) (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Concerns with Racial Attitudes and Lego
First, I have to say that I agree with practically everything that Dave Schuler Writes in post 6299. But, I have to point out some comments that i found to be disturbing. Dave Schuler writes that "It's fine for a bunch of us to sit around discussing (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Concerns with Racial Attitudes and Lego
Greetings to all, Have been following this debate for a while and I thought I'd through in my 2 cents. Don't know if you guys are familiar with World Cup Soccer (I certainly am not), but it is definetly not a sport played exclusively by "white" (...)

		Re: 3D laser scanning
(...) This is really cool. How do you go about scanning the "inside" of an object? I think this kind of part creation is going to be needed to keep up with all the new "organic" type parts that Lego are churning out at the moment. My kids have loads (...)

(...) Speaking of <set:9171>, doesn't the figure almost dead center in the Pause DB picture remind you of Spock? The first time I saw it, that's who I thought of. Also, when I saw this set, I thought if LEGO can make a DUPLO set with people of (...) (24 years ago, 12-Aug-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: Concerns with Racial Attitudes and Lego
(...) No, I'm supposing that kids don't give a rat's ass about race. Kids play. It's we, the adults, who teach kids about race, or rather, skin color (given that we still are only one race, something we should perhaps also teach our kids...). (...) (...)

		Re: Concerns with Racial Attitudes and Lego

I'll assume you mean that you think the best way for TLC to handle this situation would be not to make minifigs of Lando, (...) (24 years ago, 11-Aug-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: LEGO Group and Disney Consumer Products Announce Building Sets Inspired by Pirates of the Caribbean

Ships are ships are ships are ships, and where the Space subthemes had (...) (14 years ago, 22-Nov-10, to lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.pirates, FTX)

		Re: Concerns with Racial Attitudes and Lego
