The Swiss government is suing to halt operations of the LHC to prevent a black hole from eating Earth. It seems they are concerned the LHC will produce micro black holes which would then merge to form larger black holes. These mini black holes would start consuming the Earth, beginning with Switzerland.

The Swiss are a bunch of spineless worms, “ But then everyone already knows that “
Have no fear says I, the black holes which will be created will be of extremely low shelf life and no one will be harmed in any way by them.
