    You shouldn't do anything to anyone else that you wouldn't want done to you. That should be annual, mandated teaching in school at all levels.

    I'm sure that will prosecuted as much as the triple illegal dirt bike riding on the streets.

    Now, now. Settle down. That would discriminate against the entire Marxist LGBTQIA movement...

    No! Wrong.

    That is not a squirt gun. It is the equivalent of a paintball gun and dumb kids are riding around shooting people with the gel shot frozen, in order to deliberately cause more pain.

    Don't confuse the two. They are clearly different.

    And, once again, the "gun" is not the issue. A bunch of dumbass kids miscalculating the response of their shenanigans. They were jacking around with some dudes who didn't appreciate being jacked around with and got called on it. It's one thing to pull this shit on friends, but I would guess that they underestimated the group that they pulled this on. It's a tough price to pay, but that is the price for lack of judgement. Sometimes we have bad judgement when we're young and we survive it. But, I know several folks who didn't. This is how wisdom is learned...by surviving.

    But, squirt guns had NOTHING to do with it. And, even if they had been used, the squirt gun was still only peripheral to both the stimulus and the response. It would not have been the fault of the squirt gun.

    Did you quote the wrong post? My post clearly stated these were not squirt guns and are similar to a paintball. And they shot at the wrong people......

    But to update this thread it seems like they did shoot at the wrong people. A bunch of white kids driving around shooting at guys like this? This is Darwin award award material.

    I did read your post. Even so, to me at least, it came across as if you were trying to conflate the two and justify banning squirt guns. Which surprised me, to say the least. I suppose I read too much into it.

    Thats the least of their problems. Some of those don't have orange on the tip. Pointing those at adult will yield catastrophic accidents...
