JohnG Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Stumbled across this doing a little research... Ten consumer products the Consumer Safety Products Commission has banned you from having, most of them just because people can't be trusted to make smart decisions or supervise their children. http://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/gadgets/news/10-beloved-banned-and-recalled-products-2#slide-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevysoldier Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 I wish the government would stop trying to protect me from myself. If you don't know to turn off the mower blades before servicing, you deserve to have your hand chopped off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max power Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 I busted the rain gutter off my step moms sweet ass 79 camaro with a jart. I took my beating happily as I totally expected the fuckin thing to bury itself in the roof of the new car. Those things were dangerous....and oh so fun.

HeavyDuty Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Anyone remember theses I could get them going so fast they would explode and send glass shrapnel thru the whole room. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnG Posted February 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Anyone remember theses I could get them going so fast they would explode and send glass shrapnel thru the whole room.oh hell yeah. When I first got them I continually hit my forearm and got a big black and blue bruise. I took a piece of foam rubber and taped it around my arm so I could keep trying. they eventually shattered and i never got another pair.Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tpoppa Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 (edited) We could use some more Jarts to remove some of the weaker ones from the herd. Edited February 19, 2014 by Tpoppa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnone Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 As stated, most of this stuff isn't banned with the exception of lawn darts and three wheelers I can't really think of anything. Everyone likes to bitch about things but this isn't a list that matters to me. I'm happy that shitty products get recalled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokey Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Nothing like the good ole days of jarts, clackers, Daisy Red Rider bb gun wars, shooting bottle rockets at eachother, throwing daggers and stars, green machines, sniffing model glue, and having a slingshot!!!!!

Still got my original wrist rocket! Needs bands for resurrection... Bottle rocket and roman candle fights were always entertaining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
