I did think it through. As I stated, nobody but me and the dirtbags could see what was happening, or else I wouldn't have done it. Would it have mattered if I used a CT softair springer, or a .177, or chucked hockey pucks at them? I could have taken a much meaner, less BB shooting device from the next locker over and just claimed PTSD made me do it.

I already admitted as much. Like I said, it's not a wise idea.

The simple fact of the matter is that PEOPLE do stupid things, then PEOPLE should be punished.

A cracked out numbnut does something with a knife, I have never heard anyone try to ban knives yet.

A street level drug dealer knocks someone or something with a bat, I have not heard anyone try to ban bats yet.

The PEOPLE should be punished.

Will that ever happen? No. Our airsoft does not have lawyers to put up a defense in court. So it is easier to simply say, get rid of the replicas, and let the idiots start using bats. Then we can start banning bats too!

I know it is just a dream that in this counrty dumb people and or criminals be responsible for their actions. But that is just a dream...

Take your pick as to what method we should use to enforce this. Personally i support the "chuck them off a big arse cliff" approach, but thats just me.

Second that motion

wtf? replicas aren't toys. why aren't the police doing more shooting and less talking? Id rather the low level drug dealer with a replica firearm be shot dead.
