From the police log of the Savage Pacer:
A 14-year-old boy from Savage was arrested after officers received a call
of a boy shooting an air soft gun at juveniles on April 11 near the
intersection of 147th Street and Idaho Avenue. The boy was arrested for terroristic threats, carrying a BB gun in public, intentionally pointing a firearm at a person, reckless discharge of a firearm in a municipality and intentionally discharging a firearm that endangered the safety of another
Granted I don't know the history of the boy/incident but if there was no one injured it seems a little over the top...

Since when is an airsoft gun a firearm?

Jesus, Mary and Joeseph. We've fallen off the cliff of common sense and into the abyss of lunacy.
If I drank, I would grab my bottle and mourn the loss of my country to the liberal weinie nanny state politically correct sheeple.
Maybe I should drink...

Oh come f#@&ing on!!!
That is a RIDICULOUS list of charges!!!!!!!!
What the hell happened to taking the kid home to mom and dad and the kid getting paddled for stupidity? Oh wait, that would require common sense, proper family values, and sensible laws. Whoops, my mistake.
Yeah, I'm f#@^ing cynical.

Well, perhaps if the little shit had been parented in the first place.
I don't know if it takes a village, but last time the little teenagers were shooting airsoft guns at passing cars, I took them away and handed them my business cards, telling them that their parent could come get their guns.
The parents thanked me, and the kids took it inside or to the backyard after that. No police intervention was necessary.

A perfect example of what I'm talking about! As usual, Andrew, you are a voice of common sense.
Seriously, more of your actions are what is needed. Of course, nowdays there are plenty of parents who probably would have send the police after you for assaulting their little babies (did you scrape their knuckle when you took the scary airsoft gun away?), and for theft.

with todays bullsh&t laws they would get you for child abuse. Now i know when i was younger i got my ass beat when i f%#ked up and i turned out just fine. and you look at all these spoiled little brats who get any thing they want and have no sense of right and wrong. i know what your saying i used toget caught by the cops and a couple times i would have rather had to deal with the cops than my parents.

Amen to that. I knew that whatever trouble I got into in school or in the world, I'd be in far worse trouble when I got home. Best deterrent ever.
We wonder why there are so many badly behaved kids today...

If the projectile is more than .18 of an inch and it is propelled by anything other than directly by a spring it is a firearm end of story. Airsoft, paintball and the like are technically firearms! Is that the state definition? The definition here in savage, from what I remember in my conversation a few years ago, any gun using pressurized air is a firearm.
