"Lion and Lamb Project" condemns GI Joe
Lion & Lamb Project's Executive Director, Daphne White, has condemned Hasbro's GI Joe action figures, calling them "aggressive toys." Jeff McIntyre, a federal affairs officer for the American Psychological Association, agrees. He does not believe the 'good-versus-evil' scenario is a valid reason for kids to play with G.I. Joe. He said kids learn the wrong lessons from "militaristic" toys including G.I. Joe, "that have violence as endemic to their character."
