“Jennifer Ewing said she was riding down Summit Street near E. 7th Avenue when she saw something frightening.

“I look over and I see about eight guys standing and pointing a gun at me,” she said.


Ewing says the paintball gun resembled a real firearm. She’s glad it wasn’t.

“When one is pointed at you, it looks real,” she said. (emphasis added-T)


Ewing was injured just one week after police say 20-year-old Thomas Woodruff fired a paintball gun in southeast Columbus, striking a man in the eye.

That man lost his vision and Woodruff was charged with felonious assault…..”

Thumpy Covey's insight:

BUT, NO…they don’t need to be regulated as a dangerous big-bad-mean old airsoft guns, BB gun, or REAL Pew Pew guns are…we have “markers”….hoooBoyeeeee!

"Earlier this month, headlines screamed the news that Ohio Rep. Bill Patmon (D-Cleveland) had introduced a bill that seeks to ban "any BB gun or gun replica that a 'reasonable person' would confuse with a real firearm....""

Thumpy Covey's insight:

But, did reporters read the bills?  NO! And it is up to gun-rights organizations like the BFA - nice! - to dive into the details.  We will add a few airsoft-specific comments to the excellent article you will read:  The chances of any of these bills passing is minute, but Airsoft is again thrown under-the-bus by Paintball and Air Guns...or, its the old divide-and-conquer by lawmakers in Ohio, as it was in California.  AND, notice the wording carefully...its almost identical in definitions and phrasing to Cali's SB199...wonder if plagiarizing legislation state to state is a no-no amongst anti-gunner law "breakers."  GREAT VIDEO AT THE END, TOO....pass this one on to your battle buddies as one to get everyone up to speed!
