Rev Woo-Woo User ID: 53860996 United States 10/23/2014 03:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Toys R Us is already not a kids only store. You can go there and buy M rated games right now. Grand Theft Auto has a ton of drug use and violence in it. Much like Breaking Bad. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28899888 and I have issues with someone trying to tell a store what they should or shouldn't sell if she doesn't like it, shop elsewhere “If we are peaceful, if we are happy, we can smile and blossom like a flower, and everyone in our family, our entire society, will benefit from our peace.” Thich Nhat Hanh, Being Peace "But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish in the sea inform you." - Job 12:7,8 "When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro." - Hunter S.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 64257321 United States 10/23/2014 05:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A Florida mom is demanding that Toys R Us stop selling "Breaking Bad" figures that come with perceived drug paraphernalia, and Walter White is not pleased. Quoting: JSUN Susan Schrivjer of Ft. Myers, Fla., posted a petition on change.org — which currently has more than 6,000 signatures — in an effort to get others to join her cause. "Their decision to sell a Breaking Bad doll, complete with a detachable sack of cash and a bag of meth, alongside children's toys is a dangerous deviation from their family friendly values," Schrivjer says on the petition. According to Britain's Telegraph, some of the 6-inch figures are dressed in Hazmat protective suits, with a description reading: "as [the] Breaking Bad action figure stares at you from inside his collector friendly clamshell package, he dares you to make your move."

It's funny too because his brother in law hank is literally the only person on the show that has any moral compass and is a real hero.... And he's portrayed as a dickhead stiff, racist, blowhard. Even though his best friend on the show is a mexican.... and he has legit feelings, not completely full of shit liar like walt. Personally hank is my favorite character. Walt's poor me cancer routine got old after the first season, after that you could see he was nothing more than a whiner that snapped because he chose to be a doormat for 20 years. |

Hank took a couple of series to work out but when it came down to it he was a real badass and like you say the only character with a real moral compass not out for his own gain. He definitely deserved some recognition. |

JSUN (OP) User ID: 18667805 United States 10/23/2014 06:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | this story upsets me because our county had (and still does have) a meth problem. anyway it was years ago someone decided to put bumper stickers on the school buses saying "END ICE AGE". ICE being slang for meth. so for years i just couldn't believe they would do something like this. it's blatant advertising for the damn drug. how many young kids getting on the school bus would even know the meaning of the bumper sticker.how does this help the situation. it doesn't. it's sickening and i'm not even a parent. when i bring up the subject people really don't get it.it's no big deal. advertisements for drugs on the school bus is no big deal! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 22266161 I agree with you. Where I live ....I guess like everywhere else. drugs are way out of hand. Senior citizens sell their pills to kids so they can afford to live. Little kids being the "middle man" to make a few bucks. The world is going crazy in every way. It's time for a change. |

Awareness of drugs must be taught to kids.Only with knowledge of what drugs does to your body and mind,is what is going to avoid teens get into drug world. Teach that to your kids.Show them photos of what the different drugs do to people.Show them how they live. That will be enough believe me. After that,it's up to anyone's consciousness,because you can't be 24/7 every minute controling your kids.No way... |
