This is the wrong case for us to defend our Second Amendment rights.

The realistic looking bb gun in question has been illegal in New York for decades.

Plus he was incredibly unsafe. He took it to a crowded New York City park and fired it with lots of children present. He let his family shoot it, even his 3 year old son. He then gave it to his daughter who pointed it at 2 year old children as she rode around on her bike.

What can a plastic pellet do to a 2 year old’s eye?

This case isn't about the second amendment. Toys are not guns. A ball poses a greater danger that the plastic pellet from the toy gun. But then again, balls are probably banned in NYC.

This case is about liberal nut jobs that inhabit large cities. However, the same liberal nut jobs will use the same warped logic against real guns.

Realistic? Neither of those two in your post 100 are "realistic".

From the two guns in question? It would sting... But you'd have to have it damn near point blank directly at the sclera to do any damage at all.

Like we keep trying to tell you, it's a toy.

Some of the much more expensive airsoft could conceivably do damage to something like an eye. The two you posted a photo of? Not so much...
