I heard the gun munching robot is actually Rosie O'Donnell.

Disagree - mostly. Kids need to be taught gun safety for sure, but if having one's ass busted for pointing toy guns at people was the norm, 99.9% of the kids I grew up with (including me) would have been beaten to a pulp. Cops & Robbers, Cowboys & Indians, Yanks vs. Krauts......we did it all. And did lots of toy gun pointin'. I think people have gotten way, way too uptight - and thus breeds the stupid shat like the topic of the original post. I've had kids point toy guns at me before....doesn't bother me. If it isn't obvious that it's a toy, then that's a different story. But most are pretty evident.

Got my kids high-capacity Nerf guns for Christmas; I'll be right in the middle of a firefight, and will be happy to do so. There's a difference between the toys and what's locked up in the safe, and they know it.

Okay. Maybe I just didn't clarify myself well enough. I as well, played all the same games you are talking about. If a kid points a toy gun at me, and he obviously knows it's a toy and he's playing a game, then I just go along with it and have some fun. If they point it at me, and say "I just killed you f*****", that's when I get mad. And yes, I had a kid do that to me. That's the kind of scenario I was refering to earlier. Hope that helps understanding my viewpoint.

Sad these kids will have to wait until they or someone they love is raped, robbed, or murdered in order to become familiar with a firearm.....

Bought one myself. Keep it in the office in case I am overrun by motards.

Don't you all realize they simply want to educate your children for a better future?

All we need is peace and ounderstanding.

Meanwhile in far away Switzerland, where marksmanship is a national value...

...kids are learning to safely handle military rifles.
