Just remember kids, when it comes to weaponry, leave the armoury at home or the local authorities will take away your toys & freedom. No fair!!! No fun!!  :(

Indeed, we traded freedom for comfort and safety.  We need to get it back and certainly teach children not to inhibit a wussy type of character, are you going to be a man?  Or are you going to be a grown up boy?  Teaching kids how to handle violence with Morality in the mix helps them become better individuals than what society believes.

Well done Lord Rodney! What an excellent and memorable gift for all. The kids got to meet a genuine knight in armor and you have the honor of seeing the kind of wonderment upon their faces that is becoming such a rarity with each passing generation!  :)
