Darth Vader Attacks Founder Of Jedi Church

Lousy Sith Lords think they can do whatever they want!

HOLYHEAD, Wales (AP) - May 13, 2008 -- A man who dressed up as Darth Vader, wearing a garbage bag for a cape, and assaulted the founders of a group calling itself the Jedi church was given a suspended sentence Tuesday.

Arwel Wynne Hughes, 27, attacked Jedi church founder Barney Jones - aka Master Jonba Hehol - with a metal crutch, hitting him on the head, prosecutors told Holyhead Magistrates' Court.

He also whacked Jones' 18-year-old cousin, Michael Jones - known as Master Mormi Hehol - bruising his thigh in the March 25 incident, prosecutors said.

Unfortunately for Hughes, his March attack was recorded on a video camera that the cousins had set up to film themselves in a light saber battle. "Darth Vader! Jedis!" Hughes shouted as he approached. (H/T - 6ABC)

Sources say that the Reverend Al Sharpton is enroute to England to protest the racial profiling of Lord Vader, who is black.

The funniest part of this story? One of the commenters on the article wrote this gem:

"It's bad when you even have anti-Jedites in the world today."
