Any child toy can become a deadly object if not used properly. That's the reason you have all the warning labels and disclaimers on everything you buy. If used like the toy was intended and in the proper setting it is a fun and enjoyable toy like any other. They become dangerous when unsupervised children are playing or irresponsible parents are allowing their children to misuse the toys. What's next? Some elementary school banning the game of "TAG" bescause it promotes violence. Wait! That did happen recently. Do you see where this is leading? Children aren't being allowed to be children anymore. We are expecting them to grow up to fast and destroying their developmental cycles in the process. We will regulate our lives to the point that it will be illegal to do anything anymore. I'm sure this debate started because of some tragedy. While I have sympathy for anyone that has lost a child it dosen't mean that we want you to become our saviors from our better judgement. That's why accidents are called "ACCIDENTS".
