"Freedom can be dangerous, but that's the idea": Sure, but these aren't being sold with anything like the information and insight a normal person with reasonable intelligence would require to make a judgment about the relative degree of risk. They are, by design, dangerous. They are sold sometimes in unusable, potentially dangerous or deadly form (electrocution, for instance).
The "freedom" part here isn't "dangerous things should be banned," but rather, "risks should be fully disclosed and stuff shouldn't be sold without warnings to consumers in a form that appears to be safe from a consumer retailer."
