Libertarians Launch 'Guns For Tots' Drive
(CNSNews.com) - The Manhattan Libertarian Party has announced a "guns for tots" campaign, which it describes as "a new philanthropic program that will put toy guns in the hands of the city's youth while it's still legal." The Libertarians are making fun of the New York City Council's proposal to prohibit the sale or possession of any toy gun. "Playing with a water pistol is one of the most cherished rites of childhood," said Jim Lesczynski, spokesman for the Manhattan Libertarian Party, in a press release. "We want to give that experience to New York's children before the spoilsports in City Hall take it away permanently." The Manhattan Libertarian Party says it will collect toy guns and cash contributions for the purchase of toy guns from its members and other interested citizens between now and Feb. 6, the day the City Council's Consumer Affairs Committee has scheduled a hearing on the proposed toy gun ban. It plans to distribute the toy guns outside a public school in Harlem after testifying at the Feb. 6 hearing.
