Penney to protest Date: Mon, 16 Dec 2002 18:10:56 -0800 (PST) Some people can't handle the raw and overt results of what happens in warfare. If we hide it behind a fluffy euphemism; it's okay. That annoys me. In my opinion, It's acceptable for children to know that war isnt a game.. except maybe for gungho leaders with balls bigger than his brains. And it *does* inflict devastation. I enjoyed watching GI Joe when I was a kid. Why was that acceptable? Cindy I dont know how a single toy can bring all this debate aboot. a kid probably wont give half a goat's ass about what it is. it's not like we're throwing them dead squirrels to glue together and make a fort with. --- erin ruehr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Yeah totally, kids in different countries have to > deal with this shit on a daily basis, and it's sad. > But if I had a child, I wouldn't want him/her to > play with crap like that, why influence such young > minds that violence is ok?
