Hayward school to sponsor toy gun exchange

Only in Obamaville.  Above is what I asked for from Santa Claus every Christmas.:)

An elementary school will hold a toy gun exchange Saturday, offering students a book and a chance to win a bicycle if they turn in their play weapons.

Strobridge Elementary Principal Charles Hill maintains that children who play with toy guns may not take real guns seriously.

"Playing with toys guns, saying 'I'm going to shoot you,' desensitizes them, so as they get older, it's easier for them to use a real gun," Hill said.

  1. I grew up playing with "Western Cowboy" six shooters... As I got older I was introduced to a S&W #66. Didn't even have to be told the difference, as it was obvious that on was a cap gun, and the other was "a real gun". Started out shooting .38 specials, and from there my interest in firearms grew. Not once have I ever "not taken real guns seriously".
    Maybe it time for Mr. Hill to "grow up"....
