I just published my first amazon review and I invite you to join me.

The product is "Police Force Role Play Set for kids w/ Combat Vest, Riot Shield, Badge, Handcuffs, Machine Gun Toy, Grenade, Club & Knife".

Yes, you read that right.

My review:

Never too soon to develop good community policing habits!, December 10, 2014
By Rabble Rouser
This review is from: Police Force Role Play Set for kids w/ Combat Vest, Riot Shield, Badge, Handcuffs, Machine Gun Toy, Grenade, Club & Knife (Toy)
This is the best training tool I have found yet for indoctrinating my neighborhood youth in preserving the peace and protecting homeowner's property from the verminous thugs on the south side of the tracks. I just line the six year-olds up at the entrance to our gated community in their riot gear and dare the urban youth types to enter. Not a chance! (Roll of black tape to cover up any exposed name tags is not included - don't forget it!)


Have fun!

Maybe you could dress the kitties up and have them keep the rats in line?

From the reviews, it sounds like it's made of the shittiest materials too, so it breaks in nothing flat.

At least these are colored like toys. I used to have one of those stupid rubber knives too. I think it's normal to play with stuff like this. The best was laser tag.

The grenade could arguably be a tear gas grenade, but they really should have included a nice battery operated tazer. Something low voltage that just tickles a little.

This manufacturer just doesn't get the need to protect our little racists' heads.
