Easter Bunny target of German lawsuit

A German man has taken legal action against the Easter Bunny for grievous bodily harm. Karl-Friedrich Lentze, from Berlin, has filed a complaint with prosecutors, accusing it of causing addiction to chocolate which leads to heart attacks, obesity and strokes.

Lentze said: "The Easter Bunny is a sadistic and unscrupulous offender who preys on people's sweet tooth. Find this evil bunny, handcuff his paws and remove him from shops in time for Easter." Public prosecutor spokesman Christian Avenarius said: "We will act upon the complaint with speed and diligence."

BTW, Christian Avenarius is the same guy who officiated the capture of the German pedophile whose victim was dropping notes out of the window. Glad to see he's moving on to bigger and better.

Personally, I'm against this lawsuit, because if it succeeds, what's to stop people from going after the other mythological holiday entities, the ones with real net worth? Because we can't lose Kris Kringle.
