Don't mean to keep posting news links, but this one is full of lefty hysteria---

First, the headline on the website reads "'Scary discovery' leads police to find modified guns"--instead, what they found were airsoft toys.

Next, it says airsoft guns shoot BBs.

Finally, they say this discovery "helped take these airsoft guns off the streets" and that the Boulder PD praised the officer for his work ridding society of these terrible toys.

31 has a "suggest corrections" box.

Might be a good idea to correct the misinformation. Or is it disinformation?

Yet again, one more reason we're grateful to have left CO .

Not mentioned at all in the Daily Camera as of yet.. If anyone local was going to make this in to a thing I would have expected them to be it.

They have a Facebook and Instagram page, good way to comment on articles like this.

I'm kinda getting tired of thinking that same thing every time I visit here

My heart goes out to you guys still in CO.

Earlier today I watched a couple of Jeeping videos on YouTube and was feeling a little wistful for CO ... thanks for getting me over that

"Boulder" says it all.

Those scary airsoft guns can raise a pretty good welt, or even put an eye out. Maybe even break skin if they're really hopped-up.

Well, Boulder and the people of Boulder, including the cops, suck ass

"Police confiscated multiple airsoft guns that were “intentionally modified” to look like real firearms. "

Before police can confiscate something, it has to be illegal.

What laws were broken? What gave police legal authority to take this property?

Isn’t there some law requiring the airsoft guns have orange tips or what have you? It would seem that’s why…
