More Poison Chinese Toys - Time For A Change and A Boycot

OK folks this is getting out of control. China just announced it has confirmed the presence of poison on toy beads sold to children around the world. In this country the near toothless Consumer Product Safety Commission says now, seven children are sick from the toy beads.

The toys called Aqua Dots are made using toxic glue that is activated when the bad are exposed to water. Here’s the kicker, that’s how you play with them! When wet they stick together, big fun! Oh yea, and they poison you!

If the government won’t do it the American people need to. Time to boycott toys from China until the companies shipping the work overseas can assure the public their toys are safe. So I propose giving your kids books this Christmas, printed in the USA or Europe. For toys, consider some of the companies that actually make them here still or those from Europe. Chinese toys have been shown to be unsafe and manufactured in an irresponsible manner. If the government won’t stop it, the people must!
