Yeah, I was gonna mention that for the most part, it would be the male children who would seize the opportunity to strew around the phony chicken carnage.

For the record, I don't find the thought of these jolly hijinks "amusing" in the least. I see that I need to clarify and qualify or risk the ole' context twisting here..

The whole thing strikes me more as laughably IRONIC, in light of the overwhelming concerns expressed here of kids being severely scarred...and then the probable reality of many of them gleefully amusing themselves with the bloody mess and just not "getting it", or more accurately - not caring at all really.
