Rabbit eggs belong in Easter baskets but not other toys?

Toys in general aren't traditional Easter gift items(you may be thinking of Christmas). War is sometimes necessary, but it does not fit into the theme of Easter. Am I the only one to see this?

I think war toys are a harmless part of a boy's life, but toy soldiers in an Easter basket? That would have been thought of as weird long before the advent of political correctness.

Everyone is free to shop where he wants, but I'm not about to boycott Walgreens over this. That seems to me to be an over-reaction.

I have never bought an Easter basket. If I did I would likely be a traditionalist/old fashioned and I had not idea they had toys in them now.

Boycotting Walgreens isn't an issue with me because the ones around here are awful and one was just shut down by the health dept. But using simple logic and nothing else, whether I like it or not, if one toy goes in there, all toys can.

I just want chocolate.
