Germany to ban paintball in wake of high school shooting

[dannno]

First of all paintball isn`t violent so what the hell are they talking about?

You've obviously never been hit in the nuts by a paintball.

Well, I see no other way for distinguishing law abiding individuals from trench-coat Emos'.

Yeah, it's a problem. Especially when the former are law-abiding trench coat emos!

Lol! Paintballs hurt...so does air soft.

And it's extremely obvious you've never been hit in the nuts by one!

Well, right, but I have been hit in the face and butt. That hurts.

You`re right. I found it too silly to try albeit I`ve been invited a couple of times.

Thats just what I`m talking about. Paintball is silly and fun, we have nothing to fear from paintballers. It`s the folks who frown on it as a matter of general principle that keep me up at night.

Missed this earlier...article mentions biometric controls for gun storage - makes me think of the biometric gun control system in the PS3 game Metal Gear Solid 4, where it's impossible for anyone to fire any gun unless they have the correct biometric ID for that specific gun, etc..

It would make as much sense AND be more effective to ban high school.
