I don't live in in RI, but maybe just maybe they need these measures. Could be that they've had such a terrible rash of ill behavior with paintballguns they need to curb it. And what RI is wanting to pass is very light measure. It's not a firm grasp law. So maybe if I lived in RI, I'd might agree to the law too. It's better than a knee jerk reaction to a full on ban.[/quote]

But do you realy want this door open for what could follow once they got that foot in the door. and then liek a plage we'll have a bunch of copycat states puting there two cens in making it very hard on the rest of us. Then you have the no more paintball problem.

Hi Butcher

I'm a California Socialist, but that isn't why I made a comment. ANY political jab can have bad consequences around here. Your comment was vague and unsupported, the kind of generalization that prompts others to push back with statements of their own about why your statement isn';t true. They will give specific facts to support their side, and someone else will push back the other way with their facts. We get to making fun of the specific personalities in politics, like Clinton and his infidelity, or Rush Limbaugh and his drug addiction. (I used one from each side, so it wasn't aligned with one viewpoint) It goes downhill from there.

My idea of politics in paintball are whether you are a front player or a back player, or whether you shoot a pump or a semi. P

Do you? I suspect you don't. Do you really think the world is as black and white (or blue & red) as you seem to infer?

I have many Republican friends and Many democratic friends. Non of them are as easily classified as you seem to think. I'm probibly the most liberal of them and I'm the only gun-owner.

Maybe labels are the problem

Anyway, If you had some kind of point or opinion on the subject perhaps your statement wouldn't have been taken as trollish. But throwing out a one-liner barb with no real point... well you see the result.
