Like veal, chicken, Swiss steak, coconuts, cracker crumbs, and cracked
ice? I would imagine a more realistic scenario to be 1) big kid
mashes smoke detector with hammer 2) big kid chucks it somewhere 3)
little kid finds it, chows it down.
However, the usual controls a parent uses for things that can kill a
kid rapidly, e.g., Drano, seem sufficient to protect kids from smoke
detectors. The argument quoted above does not, since the release and
consumption don't have to be by the same child.
