Is there a necessary thrill?


iconWATCH, a consumer group that usually informs parents about choking and suffocation hazards in toys, included a toy gun in this year's list. But rather than come up with any real dangers posed by such a toy, they simply spew antigun bigotry:

"In today's world, there is no excuse for outfitting children with realistic toy weapons designed to produce dangerous and unnecessary thrills."

UPDATE: Bruce has more. A lot more. Apparently the WATCH guy is a big time personal injury trial lawyer and (of course) a John Edward's supporter. Since Bruce has his address, I recommend we buy a bunch of those toy guns and pass them out to kiddies in his neighborhood. I'm in for $50. That's 9 kids right there.

I see they felt compelled to brush out the orange barrel tip for the image on that link. Doesn't look as SCARY with it on, I guess.

I was wondering how long it would take you to get this one up.

Oh, c'mon, its safe - it has that orange tape on the muzzle. Everybody knows that means Toy Gun.

Excuse me while I retape my AK. The flash suppressor keeps burning it off.
