There are lines that are not crossed because once they are crossed, even in jest, it opens the door for others to push the line a little bit further and a little bit further and a little bit further until a tradegy happens. That's why there has to be zero tolerance for certain behaviors. Pushing the line is perpetuated by the attitude of 'it was just a joke' (read 'it was just a water gun') or 'boys will be boys'.
