Turkish community in Austria threatens to sue Lego for the Star Wars set "Jabba's Palace" because - they say - the set if a miserable copy of the Hagia Sophia and Jabba obviously is a racist depiction of the oriental race with all kind of negative stereotypes attached to it. They accuse Lego of "Volksverhetzung" (incitement of the masses). Yes, you read that right.
So far I found the story in German only:

They want to take action in Germany and Switzerland as well, and then fired a barrage of pseudo-pedagogic bull to put some cream on top of the smelly brown heap they just have squeezed out.
So good to have them here. They really mean so much more life and activity in our boring inferior monoculture.
What I really take queer: that they - as Muslims and notorious troublemakers - dare to label the absolutely and totally unsuspicious toy as "
Sprengstoff für Kinder" ("explosives for children"). That kind of cynism tops it for me.
