A group of about eight demonstrators representing a variety of stupid coalitions and networks dedicated to promoting "responsible and peaceful" toys spent an hour outside Washington's Metro Center passing out leaflets that asked parents to pass up GI Joe, and for that matter all toy guns, grenades, rifles and tanks. "Ho, ho, ho, war toys have got to go," Manassas resident John Steinbach chanted. Mr. Steinbach dressed as Santa Claus and protested the violent toys on behalf of a group called the Gray Panthers.
You can drive to DC from Manassas. You don't have to fly. Probably a good thing, isn't it? "Mothers, don't let your babies grow up to be men." |
