    Lol reminds me of playing soldiers with my friends as a kid lobbing real neutralized surplus grenades at each other, basically ~3lb chunks of steel at that point. Let the kids play with grenades!!

      It isn’t always safe

      I remember watching a documentary about left over land mines from WWII. There was a French mom who had her son show her a live land mine he dug up. They evacuated the home and the bomb squad came in to detonate it.
