Utah Bob #35998 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 As I wore out my beloved jump boots decades ago I was looking for a replacement pair for burial (or party) use. So I find them on line.........But do to the warning I’m reluctant to purchase. Don’t wanna get toe cancer. WARNING: This product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Subdeacon Joe Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 At least the courts finally decided that coffee shops don't need to put up the Prop. 65 warnings for coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Bascomb, SASS # 47,494 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 ALL items sold in CA must be Prop. 65 compliant. You would be surprised at what things are deemed carcinogenic by CA. Everything coming into my store from vendors out of state must have the compliance sticker affixed. Would you believe the revered P-38 GI can opener must be so labeled? Clothing items, stainless cook wear, carabiners, sunglasses, knife sheaths, fastex buckles, leather belts.......and on and on. There are lawyers running around searching retailer's shelves for items not properly labeled so they can file suit and 'protect' the public....

Sedalia Dave Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I really believe that manufacturers put the waring on their product because it is easier and cheaper than conducting the testing required to prove that said item did not contain any of the millions of possible carcinogens.

Pat Riot Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 As I said before...certain political types realized something was wrong with them and their families so they came up with this label to warn future gene pool members before it was too late... problem is, it’s too late...
