Well that is quite a realistic looking light saber, I can see how someone might mistake it for being real.

EDIT:  coincidentally I just noticed this today:  http://macedoniaonline.eu/content/view/19878/53/

These light saber attacks could become a pretty big problem in the near future   Question

I was in the NY city  toys r us and was browsing the pirates of the Caribbean sword collection for a possible gift for my son.  A mentally challenged kid then yanked one out of my hand and challenged me to a sword fight. 

He was really getting on my nerves following me around jabbing me with it.  However i realized how awful it would look if i took action.  Eventually his caretaker caught up with him.

It would have been a lot more interesting if he'd gone on a rampage in Toys R Us with a real lightsaber.

Honestly, whoever wrote the article got in at least a couple of good jokes already.

If you lived in a city that got 37 inches of rain every year, wouldn't you be a little crazy?

Seriously, though, I love Portland. Fresh air, lots of gardens and park, plenty of culture, tremendous micro-breweries, relatively low violent crime rates. It's surprising.

I live 35 miles away from Portland, I love it here.  Especially the dreary weather.  Fog is fun!

The best part of this story is that, apparently, no one was serious hurt in the incident.

The second best part is the comments made by the people reading this story. ROTFL!

68+inches per year average for the town I live in, and add that to the 83+inches of snow we get

Currently the man has been sentenced to death in the pit of Scarlac where we will be slowly digested for over a period of thousand of years.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
