Banned?

No

Side note, I very tangentially know a guy who's wife took a jart to the dome. It was a running gag that that's why she married him.

I would say no to banning to weed out the stupid, however, the stupid have a way of affecting the ones who have an IQ higher than a turnip.

Epic (typical) BooBoo fail.

My next door neighbor had one go right through his foot. Of course we played with them all the time, and because we were dumb kids we spray painted the target hoops with glow in the dark paint and launched those things at each other after dark. They really stuck nicely into that Georgia red clay ground.
