Advertising projectile launchers [View all]

Well now that trump has successfully removed PBS from the airwaves in my area, I decided to go back to commercial TV for reruns of Criminal Intent.
It shocked me at least twice an hour the channel/network advertised these plastic guns.
Uh, excuse me - "projectile launchers" legal in all fifty states, incapacitates threats from a distance of up to 60 feet - get yours now!
Is this what we've come to? A nation so afraid we must shoot first - ask questions later?
So scared of each other we have to equip ourselves with imitation weapons?
A Gun Is a GUN.
I can see multiple lawsuits and accidental shootings on the horizon.
