Subject: 9/11 toy found in bags of candy

Written By: Jessica on 08/27/04 at 4:57 pm

I really don't know what to say about this. Why would anyone in their right mind make a toy like this and distribute it? :-\\

That is just about as low as you can go. I am very glad they were recalled.

that reminded me of another offensive toy that was found in goody bags of toys and candies that were distributed at bar mitzvas a year ago here in canada...a little adolf hitler panda was found in them. the chinese distributor apologized for the insensitive toy, their excuse was many chinese people don't really know about the holocaust or history of the western world. maybe that type of thinking was behind this 9/11 toy...gross ignorance.

Just out of curiosity (and knowing that after something like this comes out, this always happens), I looked on eBay. Guess what I found?

9/11 Toy

Now if you get here too late and they take the auction off or whatever, it stands at 32 bids with a price of $5301. :o

I clicked the link and it couldn't be found.  Maybe eBay removed it?

Yeah, they removed it because the link was working last night.
