Aqua-Dots linked to date rape drug!

Sadly it seems like my blog has been focusing more on child safety than it has been on the political crisis our country is in but I believe the safety of our children is important to the success of this country and when we allow those who import into our county the ability to put our future in jeopardy, it needs to be in the forefront of the American consciousness

What does a child’s toy and a date rape drug have in common? Well in the case of Aqua-Dot, they are one in the same; both manufactured with gamma hydroxy butyrate which is commonly used to sedate women before being raped.

However, when ingested by kids, it can cause, seizures and even death. This is dangerous and is a design flaw of the company and a blatant oversight by the manufacturing company (undisclosed) located in China.

What’s worse is, the Canadian distributor Spin Master Toys has publicly stated that their product is sold in over 40 countries and they have no intention of pulling their product from their shelves, citing that it is up to those countries to do it.

If one child is injured or dies the Board of directors and it’s shareholders should all be criminally and legally liable for allowing it to happen.

I tried to locate contact information for Spin Master toys but their URL has been taken down…no wonder!
