Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Only fair if they both have access to grenades. Tada!

Technically the teacher who purchased the grenade would be responsible. Or is it the store who sold the grenade? Or is it the parent who didn’t teach the toddler about grenade safety? Or is it video game violence? Or is it movie violence? Or is it divine intervention? Or is it Aliens?

For one thing - it's not just one grenade. I said it 3 times: grenades. Say, scattered all around the playground and classroom.

I'm not asking who is responsible. Knowing who is responsible isn't going to stop the ankle-biters from blowing each other - and themselves - to smithereens. It doesn't matter who is responsible right now - first we need to stop them from exploding.

I'm asking what the better solution to the problem would be: should we try to separate the kids from the grenades, or try to teach 5-year olds the proper use and care of handheld explosives?
