Monopoly Sues to Protect Its Monopoly

The
makers of Monopoly are suing the man behind a satirical version called
Ghettopoly in which ‘playas’ compete to build crack houses.

"The Ghettopoly knockoff has generated a firestorm of controversy
for its highly offensive, racist content," said the lawsuit.

Ghettopoly’s game-pieces include a gun and marijuana leaf while its logo
is a caricature of a black man holding a submachine-gun and bottle of
liquor.
