McDonalds - Free Toys Ex. Shooting Robots

Complaint
Review by damboisee on 2013-01-27
Rating: StarStarStarStarEmpty Star
Poor choice of a free toy (Shooting Robots) to be given away to children, after the incidents that happened in Newton, Ct. I believe that McDonald Corporation has the responsibilities to remove from their restaurant the free Shooting Robots. As a grandparent I am concerned of the grandchildren behavior with such a toy. Thank you very much.

Sincerely ,
Emilie D'Amboise

Are you talking about the Transformers action toys? They really aren't 'Shooting Robots' but robots that have moving parts that you can make from a robot into a car.

My grandsons already know how to use and respect pistols, rifles, and shotguns. The 12 yr old has shot two nice deer this year. The toys are fun to play with. Gotta side with McD's on this

I've got a couple of nice deer in my yard, and I hang around holding Betsy, watching for someone else with a gun to walk onto my property,

It's up to the parents to teach their children right from wrong because society can't please everyone. When my parents told me 'don't play with matches', 'don't play with guns', 'don't run with scissors'...I didn't. Heck, they even told me when I was little, 'Eat your popcorn one at a time, so you don't choke'...and by golly, as an adult I STILL eat my popcorn one at a time...it drives my Dad nuts, but I told him, 'that's how you and Mom taught me'....LOL!

Parents and guardians have the responsibility to decide what is appropriate for their children and what is not. You can always decline the toy that comes with the meal.

trm, that's what posted signs are for I agree. We hunt on family land. If a critter is on the "house property" (@1 acre around the house) they are off limits. We like to watch them browse around the lake.
