Mike Dyer, director of the city-owned Bass Park, where the fair is held, said Tuesday that the shooters were not on the city's "do not insure" list, so he sent it to the city's insurer for approval.

Marshmellow Shooters! Of course these must be bad, they shoot!

Well, folks, the lawyers and busy-body do-gooders screw up another kid's life.

I doubt the Kid's life is is screwed up by this.The problem is he put the fair and by exension the city on the hook for the potential liability because he had no insurance.He can sell them from his front yard,door to door or mail order without insurance.The problem comes when someone with deeper pockets gets involved.

actually it would be the jury that did the actual awarding.

Remeber JURIES are the determiners of fact and in the end, liability.

I bet if he called it a marshmellow "injector" instead of shooter, it might have made a difference.

They probably treated it as if it was a real gun.
