AK47 Water Pistol

Replica AK-47 offered by Fry's as a toy

Posted by Phil, July 9, 2012 at 02:30 am

I was quite unhappy to see in today's Fry's Ad on page AA6 an add for a Replica AK47 Motorized Water gun.

Really, is this what Fry's offers kids these days, or are these for adults. And what happens if somebody chooses to squirt a peace officer in bad light. I guess the reply will be, "But it was painted yellow". And what about a kid who wanted it to look more real and painted it balck???

Fry's you should be ashamed of yourself. Do you really need business that badly?

Cheers! Phil

It's difficult to know what's going on in a kid's mind unless they feel confident enough to open up…Read More and talk. And this program helps us adults to learn to listen differently.

I too was at this Challenge Day. It was my 6th. I first volunteered because I watched the program…Read More on MTV "If You Really Knew Me" when my son was being severely bullied in middle school and saw the program was offered when he was a freshman in high school. My company strongly supports me volunteering for this and allows me to take the day off work to attend. I am continually humbled by what these teens share and saddened at what some of them have experienced in their short lives. This program is so valuable. I think every school should offer it and every parent should attend. It helps us to realize that we need to think twice before we judge or assume things about others when we know nothing about them. It is the volunteering opportunity that I look forward to participating in every year.
