At least, not with 100% comprehensive accuracy. It's sort of the whole point. Anybody is allowed to sell ... well, almost anything. Which is how companies can up with edge-case blunders, one example of which is a recent Walmart toy. It ended up getting pulled. Because that dancing cactus that you might assume is pretty harmless, and which sings some indecipherable song?
The toy actually swears and sings about cocaine -- albeit, in Polish. Not exactly an ideal Christmas gift for a youngster. But it's nevertheless easy to see why this one has garnered headlines and forced Walmart to remove the item.
