Jailtime for Air Soft guns in NJ
jerry920 sends us a link to an article in Fox News about the strict gun laws in New Jersey which include BB guns and Air Soft guns, apparently.
As recently as October, a man was arrested in New Jersey for shooting an airsoft gun at a rubber duck for target practice, in his own yard. Idyriss Thomas, 22, was arrested in Glassboro, N.J., after police responded to multiple 911 calls from neighbors who reported seeing a man with a gun. Once police determined the gun was unlicensed, Thomas was taken to jail and charged with unlawful possession of a weapon. His family posted a $2,500 bond.
“I didn’t realize that what I had in my hand would cause the events that happened today,” Thomas told Philadelphia’s WPVI. “I had the airsoft gun in my hand, playing with it, taking shots at a rubber ducky – not harming anybody.”
Understandably, the law treats criminals with BB and other toys as if they had a real weapon in the commission of their various crimes, but the example above is just stupid. A fellow in his yard, shooting at targets isn’t hurting anyone. Yeah, his neighbors were upset, but that’s their problem for being ignorant hand-wringing pussies.

verifiably witless pinhead a/k/a vwp, turfing the mentall ill out on the streets was well underway before the 1970s when I moved to Chicago. You couldn’t get on a CTA bus without running into at least 5 homeless people who had been kicked out of safe houses – homes for mentally incapacitated adults – during the JOHNSON administration in the mid-1960s.
I was alive then and you weren’t so you have nothing but your own ignorance to display.
Was the pimp trolling again?
@49
Tell you what, I’ll figure that out when you tell me how many children have died because totalitarians like yourself have stripped away people’s rights to defend themselves.
Ah, the leftard utopia of New Jersey… you can have rights if you can afford the Supreme Court case to get them!
Oh, yes, indeed.
@48, 49 – this lunatic just pisses me off.
Murdered children? Oh, let’s count all those millions of little lives destroyed by induced abortions, vwpussbucket. I think those numbers far outstrip guns.
You can’t have it both ways, fuckspittle.
I consider vwpisshead a fine example of the mentally ill that were housed and taken care of until the 1960s, and now we’re stuck with them and the crimes they commit, etc. I’m convinced that vwp is his own cousin as well!
VWPutz – Stupid (you) cannot be cured. Stupid is forever. Your ignorance, not to mention your stupidity, is incredible.
Kindly GFYourself. Shut up and go away.
Change your sheets, Bedwetter.
