Of course not.  But the point is you can then blame (and attempt to • sue) toy
manufacturers for the violent tendencies in your own kids.  Along • with video
manufacturers, TV networks, the funny-looking guy next door et al.

There's also the problem of the police, knowing that anyone can get • hold of
a weapon, cannot now tell if a kid is holding a toy or a real • firearm, so
have no choice but to shoot first.

I think you should be more worried about what is available in the • 'sporting
goods' section of some of these stores.  i.e. the real thing.

I am worried about what is in the 'sporting goods' section.  There is
not nearly a wide enough selection and the prices are generally to
high.
