Teddy bear discontinued because it's insensitive

This might be one of the stupidest abuses of our politically correct society.

Vermont Teddy Bear Company discontinued the "Crazy for You" Bear. They caved in under pressure from mental health advocates who were saying that the bear clad in a strait jacket portrayed the mentally ill in a negative way and it was completely and was all around insensitive to their plight.

Funny. I thought it was something cute to give on Valantine's Day.
