Boycott JC Penney and their fascist, war-mongerin, Bush-centric merchandise.
I came across this while perusing the Internet and I am shocked and horrified that a major department store would be carrying such detrimental children's toys. Read on...
<<"Take command of your soldiers from this fully outfitted battlezone. 75-piece set includes one 111/2"H figurine in military combat gear, toy weapons, American flag, chairs and more. Assembled dimensions; 32x16x32"H. Plastic. 10 lbs. Ages 5 and up.">>
That is what the copy reads on the JC Penney website for one of several toys marketed to children 5 and up.
Normally, I could rant about this for a few paragraphs but I am so incredibly shocked and pissed off that I'll just put it out here for everyone to look at.
Whether you are for this war or against it, one cannot dispute the insanity of marketing these kinds of toys to children.
Thank you JC Penney for reinforcing what a sick, sick joke our American culture has become.
I urge you all to contact JC Penney about this and boycott them at Christmas time if this is the kind of 'Merry Christmas" they are marketing.
