I have to agree. If TLG wants to be non-violent, no guns anywhere. On the other
hand, I think maybe they could draw a line with things like modern day weapons.
I think they can give the police hand-held pistols, and still do without
semi-automatic weapons, grenade launchers, flamethrowers, etc. To sidetrack my
own sense of "it's not fair! everyone else does it!" I'll just add that most
toys (at least boys' toys in the USA) have crazy amounts of guns. I think TLG
can find a happy medium between being completely non-violent and insanely
violent... somewhere inbetween Bambi and Rambo.
