True. Airsoft / BB is the same thing in the public eye.

Oh joy, the only thought that comes to mind after reading that is
"Soccer moms unite!"

I can't wait for some crazy person to try to blow this out of proportion.
"OMG!! Airsoft is fully to blame for this! Don't mind the kids retarded parents who gave him the money, and most likely bought it for him. And who also don't see anything wrong with him talking about beating h**s and cappin asses all day... IT WAS ALL AIRSOFTS FAULT"

Hopefully I'm wrong... I just feel very cynical right now.

I seriously think we should stop jumping the gun each and everytime a kidiot gets charged for shit like that seriously, from the title I get he's 18? (The link doesn't get me to the article, i'm on my BB) Well I don't see any problem whatsoever. BB guns are still around and aren't going anywhere. Since BB guns = Airsoft and vice versa to the authorities/public, I think it's safe to say that nothing is going to come out of this in the end.

Just my 2 cents

Doesn't say what kind, or how it was being transported.

Was it a pistol tucked in his waistband? Part of it sticking out of a bag? Slung on his back? What?

There's nothing I hate more than an article leaving you with more questions than answers.

my guess, it was more likely a BB gun, hand gun, tucked into his pants. Was prob doing it to make him a "badass" in front of his friends.

That was my first thought, but it could have been a larger gun in a backpack, taking it to his buddies place, or of to TTAC or something... I just want to know... damn you CP24, damn you to hell.

As sad as it is that's probably what will happen even though he's 18 and therefore a LEGAL adult who's responsible for his own actions. He probably bought it with his own money too (I don't know too many 18 year olds asking their parents for "allowances" other than those stereotypical rich mainlander chicks). In fact like George Lopez says, if you ask for "allowance" you'd likely get an "allowance" to live and not get your ass kicked by your grandma.

I'm not going to pass judgment because the details are sketchy but if someone saw it then that's obviously a no no and therefore it eliminates the scenario that the gun was in a case. It could have been his backpacks zipper got opened somehow and the pistol/rifle just stuck out enough for someone to be concerned though. (I know with my backpack sometimes the zipper gets "loose" and the backpack is opened)

Is it bad that first thing that came to mind was to wonder if thenooblord has been on since then?

I bet is was some wannabe wigger with pistol in his waistband.

What needs to be fixed is Joe Canadian's view of guns/firearms.

Was still a bad idea though.
