They were a choking hazard because parents were too stupid to: 1. supervise their children when they were opening them and playing with the toys 2. allowing children younger than they should to play with the toys (small pieces so not for 1-2 yr olds)3. Failed to verify if the toy posed any risk to the child because of small pieces.
So because of that Kinder Surprises are now illegal in the USA, yet you can go and purchase an AR-15 because idiocy reigns supreme?! Seriously that puzzles me AR-15 Legal, small chocolate egg with cheap toy banned because it poses a health threat.... AR-15's aren't a health risk though, everyone knows you need your daily helping of lead!?

Yet banning all guns in south Africa hasn't stopped it from having the highest crime rate in the world. While I agree it's stupid these eggs are banned, it would be equally stupid to ban law abiding citizens from owning a gun. I own an ak47 and have yet to commit any terrorist acts. Stricter background checks and punishments for gun related transgressions are a good idea though IMO
