Is electrical tape really cancerous?

It has more to do with burning the tape or otherwise heating it - probably PVC



Zero risk from handling it.

None. Everything you see touch or smell contains chemicals which are known by the state... etc.



Pure water given in the proper experiment can cause cancer.



Don't worry about it, they used those chemicals in the ink to write that notice.

You can only get cancer from it if you live in California. Vritually *everything* is "Know to the State of California to cause cancer".

Only be concerned if you eat it.

So I am in my school's winter guard (band color guard) and we always wrap our mock rifles in colored electrical tape for shock absorption as well as designs to match our uniforms for performances. For my birthday my friend got me a pack of colored electrical tape and I noticed it had a warning saying it contained 1 more more chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer. What are the chances of getting cancer from handling our rifles after wrapping them?
