Do you believe that toy guns have an influence on kids becoming thugs?

I hear it all the time
"I don't want my kids playing with guns"
I think one has nothing to do with the other.

i had toy guns when i was a kid. I didn't turn into a thug.
My sisters (no pics) had easy bake ovens. None of them turned into bakers.

No, I believe poverty and the lack of a two parent household contributes to children developing thuggish behavior.

Played with toy guns when I was a kid, shot my BB guns and pellet guns a lot since we always played in the woods, yet I never owned a real gun until I bought a couple .22 rifles in my late 40s, then bought a .38 revolver at age 50.

Not nearly as much as:
-The father dipping out cause the momma slept with no many dudes that they can't tell who the real father is.
-Or nearly as much as the violent, crack-addicted households that many grow up in.
-Or as much as the schools, societies, guilty whites that convince a criminal it's not their fault because society failed them in some way.

The gun isn't the one that has the bright idea of being a piece of shite and robbing/killing people.

I had toy guns. Now I have real guns and lots of ammo. Still not a thug!!!

Don’t let your cowboys grow up to be babies

Do you think the people that state this are worried about their kids becoming thugs?
or do you think it is more of a safety issue?

Let's roll
My turn.....do you believe there is any correlation between being alive and the sense of smell?

I'm in my 40's and when I was a kid we played cops and robbers. My father and grandfather played cowboys and indians. Kids nowadays play first person shooter games. Technology changes but people don't.

I played with toy guns all the time. I used to like those with the caps that went pop. Somehow I've managed to never shoot or even point a gun at another person my whole life.

Like the pitbulls from yesterday's thread, it is just a matter of time. You are gonna lose it...

My friends and I took our toy guns, spray painted the orange tips black, used fake suppressors with toilet paper rolls and electrical tape, had wars in the neighborhood, etc etc.
Never became a thug though. Weird.
