Wants Toys R Us to pull Breaking Bad figures.
Apparently, movie monsters and killers are ok as they have been selling stuff like this for years: Jason, Michael Meyers, Freddie, Alien, etc.

"Kids mimic their action figures, if you will," she told the station. "Do you want your child in an orange jumpsuit?"
Your parenting is outdone by molded plastic?

To be fair, parents really don't much have to worry about their kids becoming an Alien of Jason, etc. Being a meth cook is a little more within any kid's reach.
My concern about Toys R Us carrying these dolls is that there are enough kids (or their parents) buying them that it's profitable for them. Adults or teenagers buying them at FYI or something I can understand. But parents are already failing of kids are buying these.

Action figures influence shit this much? Really? How many people joined the army because of their GI Joes?

Not that I think Alien, Freddy or Jason dolls are a good thing for preschoolers either.

By the way, in case you were worried this country hasn't lost sight of its priorities, Toys R Us pulled these toys from their shelves.
I promise you that this "mother's" kids are already fucked, and it's not Toys R Us' fault.
