What is logical about including BB guns, Air soft guns and assault
rifles in the same scare tactic statistic?


Once again Fretwell, I call bull**** on your assertion, from the GVA
methodology statement:

"AirSoft/BB Guns

We collect incidents where Airsoft or BB guns are used AS weapons, not
where they are used in general vandalism or delinquency. Those
collected ARE "NOT" included in our Incident Totals on the Daily
Summary Ledger"

Here is their definition of "Gun Violence", also from the methodology
page:

"Gun Violence describes the results of all incidents of death or injury
or threat with firearms without pejorative judgement within the
definition.

How very logical. A kid waving around a BB gun, gets counted like a gangbanger murdering someone.

Looking at that site, 2 kids playing with cap guns is probably
"violence" too if they point it at each other.
These are the people who want to ban toy guns too tho.
It is the same mentality as school boards who expel kids for chewing a
cookie into the rough shape of a gun.
