Look at this new toy?!
Where are the Parents on this?
How is this type of toy okay?
The marketing makes me sick to my stomach.

I wonder whatever happen to the days back when I was coming up when kids used to play with model train sets, barbie dolls and teddy bears? I guess those aren't good enough for kids in today's society. Kids playing with toy guns gonna grow up wanting a real gun and probably gonna get one too.

I learned how to shoot a rifle in school - skeet shooting... I think it was shop class. I was always the only girl in shop.

I don't know why toy guns are a problem in these gens when not in the previous ones. We had shooting video games since video games.
Maybe gen x has more to worry about...like serial killers and pedos? Adults wanting to kill and F us ..I really don't know.

Really I don't think there's anything wrong with kids playing with toy guns. You might not want to introduce them to the wrong zodiac sign chirn.

It’s only £45 too. Adding to the Xmas gift list.
Posted by IceStormOh yeah I know. But back then in the 50s I'm sure there wasn't much violence going on involving guns. It was safe to leave all your doors prop open all wee hours of the night. Guns back then in those days didn't have any influence on kids. I don't think me and none of my siblings grew up playing with toy guns. Having earth parents, they wouldn't tolerate any of us playing with guns toy or real. That's the point I was getting at. But hey I'm not one to make such a big deal out of this. It's really all good as long as they have fun. But like the op say...where are the parents? How is this type of toy ok?Posted by Jumpin_Jupiter

I remember when Parents came after NWA because their music glorified violence.
How is a toy designed after a weapon of mass destruction not glorifying violence?

From Blood Meridian, by Cormac McCarthy:
All other trades are contained in that of war.
Is that why war endures?
No. It endures because young men love it and old men love it in them. Those that fought, those that did not.
That's your notion.
The judge smiled. Men are born for games. Nothing else. Every child knows that play is nobler than work. He knows too that the worth or merit of a game is not inherent in the game itself but rather in the value of that which is put at hazard. Games of chance require a wager to have meaning at all. Games of sport involve the skill and strength of the opponents and the humiliation of defeat and the pride of victory are in themselves sufficient stake because they inhere in the worth of the principals and define them. But trial of chance or trial of worth all games aspire to the condition of war for here that which is wagered swallows up game, player, all

It is glorifying violence. Everything is glorifying violence. Violence is glorious and part of the fabric of life
Are you going to try and tell me NWA lyrics weren't violence? Lolclick to expand

I like how they added that lively orange to make it all more child-friendly
meh none of my brothers were too interested in toy guns as kids. they were mostly into toy trucks and race cars.
but anyway i feel bad for american kids. even the ones in private schools aren't safe.

come to think of it, guns are super boring to play with. darts are more fun. prob not gonna be on the top list of toys i'd get my son.
also i'm today years old when i learned that winnie the pooh actually has a bigger fandom than mickey mouse or star wars. not too huge a gap but still woah 🤯🤯

Lets have a discussion on who's who in sport. What signs lean toward contact, non contact, genres, team vs individual. Skills, versatilities, x factor, consistency vs prone to error.
If you were a coach or manager, would you consider signs for recruitmen
