I hate seeing news like that, but this really hurts paintball's image:

I say demote the cop.SwallowBleach: It's good for you.

The punk in this link needs to spend some quality time in jail despite being only 16, he needs to learn a very hard lesson on reality and respect. Remanded to the custody of his parents who probably didn't do squat and are the reason he's such a messed up punk in the first place.Originally posted by Mosfet

How could someone mistake a paintball hit with a gun hit?
If you got shot in the face with a real gun, you'd be kind of dead
The guy who was shooting the paintball gun was a complete retard though, why in the world would you even think about shooting an armed officer with a paintball gun?

It's pretty simple, you guys know how much it hurts to get shot in the neck, compound that with facial nerves, and it can feel like you've been shot for real, especially when you've been hit from close range.
Alot goes through your head when you realized you might be mortally wounded, the whole life flashing before your eyes deal.... hitting what you're aiming at is usually one of the last things you think about.

Again, demote the cop. Make him pay for his own 9mms until he could qualify for a HS pistol team.SwallowBleach: It's good for you.

Lots of people get shot in the face and get to live with it... plus he was probably shooting hot, and it may not have broken... meaning the cop would have felt quite a bit more force, stunning him.
stupid people...
sad to say but I think the industry NEEDS someone to get killed in a situation like that for them to wake up at the broad-ranging safety problems with easily aquired guns.

also the marker could have been way hot.

so you're saying it doesn't matter if he's been shot in the face WITH NO MASK and probably has paint in his eyes, making it difficult to see, if at all, that he should still be able to shoot the guy with full accuracy?
We all play paintball. we know how much splatter there is, AND let not forget those shell shards that could have blinded him! but no. lets demote him because he couldn't see through the paint in his eyes.
Lets also demote a cop who couldn't shoot his attacker that just hit him in the nose with a base ball bat.
Lets also demote any cop who couldn't hit his attacker who just gut shot him with a shotgun.
Am I the only one that knows that a paintball to the face will probably not just bounce, leaving no paint, or tears, or anything?
If his responding shot was done immediately, then his aim will most likely have been off due to those conditions. Whats he going to do. stop. whipe off the paint. pull out a hankerchief to clear his eyes, and then take a good aim at the guy?
No, hes going to immediately take a shot whether it hits or not hoping to at the very least scare off the attacker.Comment
