Too sick for a cure
Very well, how do we eliminate all accidental deaths along these lines?A pellet gun ≠ a toy gun.Should we sell toy guns in the first place? If he did not have a toy gun, then the police would have shot and killed him. A life was lost, and peoples lives on both sides will change. Thousands of dollars will be spent in an investigation and lawsuits if it happens.
With have to ask the NRA, will you agree that toy guns can be banned? Or would they say, you start with toy guns, and then you open the door to ban real guns. Therefore, children that do not know better will be shot by police that do not know better as well.
All toy guns imported into the US these days are required to have a a 6 mm orange tip on the end to avoid just this sort of situation.
Does the toy gun with the orange tip work well in very low light most accidental deaths with a pellet gun or a toy gun happen at nighttime? Now, could you see a little organ tip at say midnight with the only help with light a mercury light. Most would not, so how does that orange tip would work part of the time. Sure, it could save more lives with it on. Still, it is not fail safe: and that can end in death.
