Well it is happening again...ok not here but the results if against "could" happen cause problems here.

This is what happens when the selling of paintball equipment is given to the mass market, and I know we have all said time and time again that paintball needs exposure to get "sports" designation, get on TV, get outside industry sponsorship. Don't feel this is just an "american problem" get involved ! There are certain parts of american society that want everything banned, Mothers of the Nation or something like that but there is a limit to what needs looking at or not....best guesses for the start of this is that "little jonny" was bought a marker by parents who didn't supervise him and either hurt someone, scared someone, or shot a sign up (where have we seen the last one before?
) or someone didn't like what was being sold on the shelf and the lack of instruction as to what was what (we had that conversation some time back about the lack of staff training for the sale of markers by "chain" stores).
I know we rant on about how there are certain leanings towards america on this forum despite the lack of americans who actually get involved on here...well that aside here's the time to show the Euro support.
