Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal, a Democrat (shocking, I know), is calling for parents to not buy toy guns for their kids until his bill regarding these toys passes. He even goes so far as to claim that parents who ignore his call are being irresponsible. I’m actually kind of surprised that he doesn’t call for those of us rolling our eyes to lose custody.

But we all know he’s probably thinking it.

Joining Hartford Police and staff at St. Francis Hospital, U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal last week described his pending legislation as a simple fix aimed at keeping the public and law enforcement safe. But until it makes it to law, he wants parents to take action on their own to keep toy guns out of their houses.

“What’s important here is parents demonstrating responsibility by stopping any purchases of these guns right away until either the gun manufacturers change their practices to make it safer voluntarily, or for my law to be adopted,” said Blumenthal as reported by the New Haven Register. “Until imitation guns are made safer, parents should stop buying them.”
