Has anyone ever noticed how much of and underground sport paintball is? Your best friend may play regularly, but you would never notice it. Like the other day, I saw my squad leader from ROTC at HPA, wich is an indoor paintball arena. I saw Steve every day last year, and had no clue he played painball. But, to get to the real question, do you think paintball guns and markers should be part of gun control? As is, should you have to register you marker with the government if gun control ever get off the ground? I sure as heck don't think I should have to.

There should be no gun control, at all, whatsoever, in any circumstance, ever. So no, I do not think that paintball guns, makers, or equipment owners should be subjected to any kind of gun control regulations.

You know that it doesn't, we've already had the ol' gun control debate a couple times (you know, I'm that guy who always comes out against gun-control).

I've always had something against the army, mainly, they kill people. And under our current administration, I must say that I find the US army to be the deplorable instrument of a lunatic. I don't think the federal goverment, or any organization connected to it, should use education as a method for recruting people to go and die.
ROTC - C = -?-
Lets not talk about this, all you will succeed in accomplishing is lowering my opinion of you.

*sniff**sniff* I smell flaming liberal jackasses. ROTC only is connected through the army by the fact they provide much of the materials. And if you think the Army send peole to go and die, then you should join.

So, you would feel completely safe to know that if a guy had a gun to your head or the head of a loved one, that some jackass in the senate decided he didn't want people to have guns, and that meant you had no way to defend yourself? I sure don't.

Paintball is not an underground sport, period. Its one of the most talked about things at my school.
Gun control for paintball guns would be like suing a rose bush for having thorns, you might end up witha few short term bruises.
Moonunit your stance with guns I can totally beilieve.
Shinobi is right the army is not like some satist, every war has a reason, even Iraq, even 'Nam,
And Finally the problem with your logic to the gun to your head, hmmm if he did then how the hell are you going to shot him? If you move your dead, if you pull the gun out your dead.
-Meh, this makes no sense but screw fixing.
------------------
It dawned on me one day that my school didn't hire a psychiatrist we hired a psychopath
Here at the ambrosia webboards we must remain profesional and not have any typeos.
People threaten me with knives, I laugh and grab my gun.

Well, it isn't that hard to defend yourself. Just ask any martial artist. Its really routine training to defend against a gun.
