I've got several CO2 guns that I keep in the house to use for varmint control in my back yard. Some of them are actually pretty damn powerful and have a muzzle velocity of up to 850 ft/s. Of course the BBs (or pellets) lose velocity EXTREMELY quickly and are only accurate to about 50 feet (on one occasion I shot a BB through a halfway through a 2" thick phone book). I definately would not let my young child have one of these weapons, but as for the single pump Daisy rifles.... I can see no problem with them. Hell, they can barely even break the skin at close range.

Maybe we could just outlaw stupidity and then this whole problem would go away as most of the members of the government would be in prison.

A good example of how hysterical and irrational the anti-gunners truly are.
