Atlantic Citys city council just unanimously voted to ban selling or owning realistic-looking toy guns.
The ordinance bans the sale, possession or use of any imitation firearms . . . which arent bright, fluorescent colors or transparent, according to an article published in the Press of Atlantic City.
Anyone caught with an illegal toy gun can face a $50 fine and 30 days in jail.

With the closing of three of its largest casinos and loss of tens of thousands of jobs, I’m sure glad the city council got this taken care of.

That, and toy “throw-down” guns are cheaper than the real thing.

This probably a good idea given the abject stupidity of the police and judges in this day and time. Neither has the intellect to discriminate between children at play and criminals in the process of shooting up a bank.

I think it’s actually meant to prevent dumb cops from killing kids, but it does sound ridiculous, doesn’t it?

Painting my Glock and AK orange now, just in case. I remember reading about a guy painting the muzzle end of his gun "florescent pink". His reason was concern that some anti-gun activist might try to falsely accuse him of "brandishing" and waving the gun around. His defense could simply be to have the officer ask the complainant "What color was the gun?"

So now all the street gang types will have a run on florescent dayglo orange paint.
