If ignored enough, they will go away.

1296706 2012-08-25 23:15:00 I wonder what 'they' would think of pea shooters and potato guns, but I suppose the trendy lefty do-gooders would think they are dreadful toys anyway. Terry Porritt (14)

1296708 2012-08-25 23:30:00 These same people who get culturally offended by play dough throw rubbish out of their cars and drop cigarette butts on the ground.
Seems we need to form a far right party in NZ to get votes from Whites like me who who have had enough of this.

Yeah. Bubblegum is more toy than food, but it goes in the mouth.

Are Maori to be prohibited from bubblegum?

Personally, I find it offensive to learn that people expect Playdough to go into someones mouth. This stuff has bee squashed against every surface in the place (including the floor), and been handled by all those young boogey laden kids hands, left in the sun for the flies and bacteria to swarm... and then they suggest it's fit for consumption?

Sheesh, you'd have to cook it and pay me before I'd ever take a nibble of the muck.
