End throwing of bamboo arrows in Lafayette Parish parades

I think there should be restrictions on the types of throws. Only individual beads should be allowed be thrown not whole bags and individual moonpies and Little Debbie cakes and not whole boxes. Soft and small items nothing dangerous. Also drinking and being intoxicated when riding a float should be banned because people do stupid and harmful things when they are drinking that they probably wouldn't do if they were sober.

Dangerous object !!

I think this is very dangerous

Agreed!!!

Keep it safe for the children.

Lets save a life

So proud of you Kylie!!!

Beyond Dangerous

Let’s prevent someone else from getting hurt

I agree the throws should not be like the arrows. Also the people in the floats should be more responsible in the way they throw things. The drinking plus all the excite man the riders emotions get carried away

From one mother to another. My little one enjoys Mardi Gras, but when danger is brought up, the fun stops here for me.

Make it end. There’s no reason why parade goers should be leaving a parade to get stitches!

Please banned them before this becomes a tragedy that we can’t clean up with a few stitches.

Please ban before someone gets severly injured.

It’s supposed to be fun not hurt people.

I’ve personally witnessed several people get gashed in the face with these spears. It’s not safe to throw at people.

Just trying to make it as safe as possible

We need to ban these arrows as throws in the parades as they are very dangerous! Thankfully my friends eyesight was not affected however, it very easily could have been!

Heard way too many stories of people having to get stitches over this. It will end up hurting people worse if not banned

This is an outrage
