Dear Editor,
By your Sept. 15 editorial advocating banning toy guns, I was
amused at how far we in this sorry state have sunk. Being the
fascist control freak he is, it would not surprise me if Police
Chief Gregg Giusiana pushes to ban toy guns. Hopefully a majority
of City Council will have the wisdom to push this back in his
face.

Wake up: If the state bans them, people will buy them over the Internet, just like fireworks, blow guns, nunchucks, switchblades, and all the other fun toys that are “restricted” in this state. And the state loses the sales ax as well!
More importantly, Airsoft guns are FUN. Just like what your kind call “assault” weapons, they are my Constitutional “pursuit of happiness.” And, just like the real thing, you don’t point them at people whom you don’t intend to shoot – you educate people to not do that, and there’s no need for the disaster predictions in your editorial.
Banning TOY guns doesn’t solve the problem, and is as stupid as stupid gets, but, that’s The Dispatch editorial staff and the Gilroy Police Department. Doesn’t anyone know how to have fun any more?
