Um...is anybody really shocked by this?

Sally Ann bans Harry Potter and Twilight toys
"I was told to withhold a six-inch Harry Potter figure, but when I picked up a plastic M-16, I was told, 'That's for the 10-year-olds,'" he said.

"I was shocked...war-themed toys and toys from TV shows and movies with far more violence than Harry Potter and these were considered appropriate toys?"

Via Joe.My.God.

Sally Ann=Salvation Army in Canadian-speak (unless the Salvation Army is known as this here, too, and I'm just a clueless Pagan).

I know they do a lot of good, but this is the type of thing that makes me donate elsewhere.
