The Menace of Plastic Dog Toys
"Police are investigating a case of alleged assault stemming from the theft of campaign signs in Seattle's Laurelhurt neighborhood," reports KIRO-TV:

Workers at the Talaris World Conference Center took action when they saw someone on surveillance camera video taking their signs, which support Republican candidates. They confronted the woman, who allegedly attacked one of them.

"The suspect became angry and struck the victim over the head with a green plastic three-foot-long ball throwing device, in addition to pushing him with his finger in the chest," said Sean Whitcomb of the Seattle Police Department.

Authorities are investigating this case as an assault and they have taken the dog toy and the incriminating pictures as evidence.

Clearly the time has come for more stringent dog-toy control laws. We fully support a dog's right to play, but what dog needs a three-foot-long ball throwing device? The only purpose such assault dog toys have is to commit violent acts. Of course, the dog-toy nuts will say "dog toys don't kill people, people kill people."

Sorry, that dog won't hunt.
