11. Going too far in labeling dangers
I don't know if it's entirely arbitrary, though I will say it's overextending itself. Perhaps, it's not simply the guns themselves, but the concept of guns overall, that they are opposed to. If the rule is against all guns of any kind whatsoever, toys included than that should be specified. It's not much arbitrary, as spontaneously applying the regulations to something that isn't stated upfront clearly. Sure, a toy gun is still a gun, but it's really still just a toy.
