As CBS 2s Dave Carlin reported, Jack Pawlowski was led out of his Queens home in handcuffs Wednesday, with his stunned wife and three young kids looking on. He said nothing as detectives put him into a squad car.
. . .
Pawlowski told CBS 2 he took a toy gun, and two of his kids, around the corner to Ditmars Park. It was around noon and packed with kids and their parents.
. . .
Another mom who was on a playground at the park at the time said she walked up to Pawlowski, and told him to take the toy gun and his kids and leave.
I dont tend to take things lying down, so I went past the parents, and so I walked straight over and I confronted him, said Leni Calas. I mean, hes brandishing a firearm and I dont care if that firearm is plastic. Thats unacceptable.
. . .
He remained in custody Wednesday evening, on charges of reckless endangerment, endangering the welfare of a minor, resisting arrest, and possession of an illegal BB gun.

We call the Chinese Communist the ChiComs. Has been so since Vietnam.
The current Democrat Party is the “ComDem Party”. I have been using that for quite a while. I even use it on Twitter as: #ComDem Crazy
It isn’t going to stop until the ‘good guys’ start suing and/or bringing charges against the nanny-staters for these kinds of ridiculous acts/arrests.
I remember BB guns were illegal there NYC as far back as 1960s when I was young,
So I guess the moral is ‘dont take a real looking toy gun out in public in NYC if you have a illegal BB gun at home’, if thats what really happened.
My apologies to the few remaining patriots in New York ... my post is not meant to include you. For all our sakes ... get out and join us while you can
I have no proof yet, but IMO, it wasn’t a BB gun. IMO, the pellets they speak of are plastic. It’s a toy, not even a BB gun.
Bastards just voted in CO to give driver’s licenses to illegals. We used to be fairly conservative here not so long ago.
Colorado House gives first OK to give licenses to those in country illegally

Are we to assume from that incident that it is illegal to discharge a cap gun? In my day cap guns rang out and their smoke billowed often on my street.
From watching the video, it appears to be an airsoft with the orange tip removed. Just a hunch, but I suspect this guy was trying to provoke a response and got it.
The toy gun was a plastic pellet gun that shoots plastic pellets. Being hit with a rubber band would be more painful. Plastic pellet guns are not BB guns in book, but Bloomberg would argue that point since he knows everything about guns.
I'm afraid that it's too late for that. It won't stop until local citizens start to "tar and feather" the snitches and enforcers of illegal laws. Then finding those caught doing so NOT GUILTY with jury nullification.
I guess in New York it is illegal to own a realistic looking toy gun. Here is what New York law states regarding toy guns:
“It shall be unlawful for any person to sell or offer for sell, possess or use or attempt to use or give away, any toy or imitation firearm which substantially duplicates or can reasonably be perceived to be an actual firearm unless:
(a) the entire exterior surface of such toy or imitation firearm is colored white, bright red, bright orange, bright yellow, bright green, bright blue, bright pink or bright purple, either singly or as the predominant color in combination with other colors in any pattern”
And people from New York claim that they are so sophisticated.
Just the garden variety urban hillbillies.
There is a city ordinance that prohibits the sale of toy guns and anything resembling a gun. Just a week or two ago, a NYC store owner was arrested for selling gun shaped lighters. He was fined $60,000.
“The communists are doing everything they can to indoctrinate our young and doing it by demonizing firearms.”
I agree with you. Now ponder this, these are the same folks that demonize guns at every opportunity and tell us that they must do this so that children will never want to use a gun. Yet, they also say that continual exposure to sex, at younger and younger ages, is to “educate” children so that they will be less apt to engage in sex.
Why the demonization approach to guns, but the “education” approach to sex? I’d say that they are admitting their perversion.
I had to laugh at that, and it made me think of that scene from The Three Amigos where Steve Martin announces "they're using real bullets." LOL
Those are good "nuts and bolts" solutions. I hope everyone pays heed to your recommendations rather than just express "outrage". We need to talk but we also need to act.
