The Good! *Hasbro* The giant toy company has announced that it will begin selling a gender-neutral version of its popular Easy Bake Oven toy. For decades - the toy has only been marketed towards little girls - but the company has decided to make a change - after meeting with a New Jersey girl who advocated for a gender neutral version. Working to remove stereotypical gender roles from our society is a key step towards fully embracing the LGBT community. Let's hope more toy companies follow in Hasbro's steps - and decide to go against traditional norms.

Thom Hartmann's crazy alert

In tonight's "Daily Take" Thom compares the NRA with Al-Qaeda and explains which organization has more blood on its hands.

President Obama spoke at a vigil honoring and remembering the victims of the Sandy Hook tragedy. And - while comforting the familes and the entire town - he suggested that we have no choice but to act to prevent future tragedies from occuring.
