    However, when the toy gun is fired, instead of making a burping noise, it utters a profanity, according to the woman.

    Gaiter said her son has been repeating the word everywhere that he goes, even in church.

    "He goes over my parent's house, he's going to curse," Gaiter said. "What are they going to think about me, with a 2-year-old running around, saying BLEEP."

    The St. Louis-area K-Mart where Gaiter said she bought the Burp Blaster gun has taken the toy of store shelves, Local 6 News reported.

    There is no word on if the K-Mart corporation is looking into the gun.
