| Images | Banksy's Elephant | By the second day of Banksy's “Barely Legal” exhibition in Los Angeles in 2006, many animal rights activists were registering their displeasure. Banksy was displaying an eight-thousand-pound elephant named Tai, whose hide he had painted red and embellished with gold fleurs-de-lis, to match the wallpaper of a parlor he had constructed. (The elephant in the room, a handout proclaimed, was global poverty.) The activists said that the paint was toxic. Ed Boks, Los Angeles’s general manager of animal services, said he regretted that his office had issued a permit and, after visiting the show, wrote on his blog that looking into the elephant’s eyes “nearly brought me to tears.” He eventually ordered the animal hosed down. | root | 44 | |
| Images | Nebraska State Senator Sues God | LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — The defendant in a Nebraska state senator's [2007] lawsuit is accused of causing untold death and horror and threatening to cause more still. He can be sued in the state's Douglas County, the legislator claims, because He is everywhere. State Sen. Ernie Chambers sued God last week. Angered by another lawsuit he considers frivolous, Chambers says he is trying to make the point that anybody can file a lawsuit against anybody. Chambers says in his lawsuit that God has made terroristic threats against the senator and his constituents, inspired fear and caused "widespread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth's inhabitants." The Omaha senator, who skips morning prayers during the legislative session and often criticizes Christians, also says God has caused "fearsome floods ... horrendous hurricanes, terrifying tornadoes." He is seeking a permanent injunction against the Almighty. Chambers said the lawsuit was triggered by a federal suit filed against a judge who recently barred words such as "rape" and "victim" from a sexual assault trial. The accuser in the criminal case sued Lancaster District Judge Jeffre Cheuvront, claiming that he violated her free speech rights. Chambers said the accuser's lawsuit is inappropriate because the Nebraska Supreme Court has already considered the case and federal courts follow the decisions of state supreme courts on state matters. "This lawsuit having been filed and being of such questionable merit creates a circumstance where my lawsuit is appropriately filed," Chambers said. "People might call it frivolous but if they read it they'll see there are very serious issues I have raised." U.S. District Judge Richard Kopf, in an order last week, expressed doubts about whether the accuser's lawsuit "has any legal basis whatsoever" and said sanctions may be imposed against the accuser and her attorneys if they fail to show cause for the lawsuit. Cheuvront declared a mistrial in the sexual assault trial in July, saying pretrial publicity made it impossible to gather enough impartial jurors. | root | 40 | |
