I'm sure most of us what love the policy if it was just focused at Twilight, but come on.  It's Christmas time!  If the little girl wants a Edward doll, why should a policy stop her from getting her Christmas present?

And I'm sure they tossed out all the Tolkien merchandise too, right?

Anything with "magic" or practically anything supernatural should be pulled based on the same logic, but it's completely impractical to do so of course.  So they just pick and choose the two most popular, I guess.

Isn't the arrogant douchebag decision against their Christian beliefs?  Come on, it is Christmas lighten up and give kids what they want. 
Ah, the good old days.

Silly as it is, it's their right not to accept those toys, but to dispose of them instead of giving them to other charities is just idiotic.
