So why did they report it as a toy?
If they were" Terrorized" why didnt they make the police aware of that?
Why was the police response time an hour?
It's all media hype about a harmless toy.
Dumb fucks!

Your earlier link to the newspaper report said the police response time was one hour and the father had left the playground.

None needed.
Report a kid in a playground waving a firearm.
You have swat teams and regular cops over running the place in seconds.
In this case the cops arrived an hour later.
Some dumb fuck Whiney bitch liberal called the police whining because she didnt like the toy.
If you call 911 and say kid with a gun, the police don't wait an hour before they amble along.

Then what's your oh-so educated deduction as to why it took the police an hour, to respond to a report about a kid with a "gun"?

Even if this gun is an 'Airsoft"...
Airsoft Guns - The Basics
Airsoft guns are best compared to BB or pellet guns that are often manufactured to look just like real machine guns, rifles, and hand guns. Airsoft guns usually fire pellets via gas, spring, or electrical systems, and are used for paintball-style gaming, target practice, firearms training, and as movie props. Although they are often marketed as game-playing devices intended to simulate real combat with automatic or semi-automatic weapons, the use of Airsoft guns by children and grownups in other arenas appears to be growing.
Because of Airsoft guns' sometimes uncanny resemblance to real firearms and the resulting potentially disastrous consequences, many laws and regulations affect the manufacture, importation, and ownership of Airsoft guns.
Airsoft Guns - Safety Concerns
While Airsoft guns are often considered toys, the reality is that they are projectile weapons capable of inflicting harm. According to one study done by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2005 approximately 19,675 non-powder gun injuries were treated in United States emergency rooms. Of these injuries, 71 percent involved individuals 20 or under.
Although that study was not limited to Airsoft guns, Airsoft guns fire their BBs at speeds of hundreds of feet per second, creating a real risk of serious eye injury. In fact, hospitals and healthcare professionals throughout the country have reported a significant rise in Airsoft-related eye injuries in recent years.
Of greater concern, Airsoft gun ownership and use sometimes has deadly consequences. There have been numerous instances in which individuals (often youths) holding realistic-looking Airsoft guns were shot by police who thought the weapons were real. Because Airsoft guns are often viewed as toys, young people owning the weapons sometimes do not realize (or adequately evaluate) the risks posed by simply holding such a "toy."
A 2003 Government Accountability Office report concluded "that scant data exist on the incidence of crimes, injuries, or deaths involving toy guns and on the long-term effects that childhood play with toy guns may have." Further, whatever incidents of toy gun injuries or fatalities were reported "probably do not represent an accurate or comprehensive reporting." However, AirSoft gun injuries, their use in committing crimes, or their mistaken identification by the public and police, all occur on an almost weekly basis.
Airsoft Guns - Laws and Regulations
The risks and consequences of Airsoft gun use have not gone unnoticed by the law. Airsoft is considered illegal in various countries such as Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, and Singapore, and some countries like Canada prohibit the importation of "replica" Airsoft guns. However, federal importation laws in the United States simply require that all Airsoft guns transported within or imported into the country have barrels with a minimum 6mm wide blaze orange tip, so as to avoid confusion with real firearms. Most retailers of Airsoft guns have disclaimers stating that their Airsoft guns are sold with an orange tip, and that it is illegal to remove the orange tip.
Furthermore, individuals in the U.S. must be 18 years of age or older to purchase an Airsoft gun. On the other hand, Airsoft guns are not classified as firearms and are legal for use by all ages under federal law. However, some municipalities and states place restrictions on Airsoft guns. New York City, Washington, D.C., Chicago, San Francisco, and parts of Michigan outlaw Airsoft guns entirely.
Some countries have specific restrictions on Airsoft guns, such as maximum muzzle velocity standards, restrictions on use of trademarks of real firearms, and required use of 'unrealistic' coloring to distinguish Airsoft guns from actual firearms.
Finally, states such as California have laws that make it a crime to brandish a look-alike gun in public. Furthermore, individuals using an Airsoft or replica gun to commit crimes will invariably be treated as though they had used an actual firearm.
Airsoft Guns - the Bottom Line
Extreme care should be used at all times with Airsoft guns, and it is best to treat Airsoft guns as a real firearm while handling and transporting them. As noted above, reckless handling of these guns can lead to various ranges of criminal consequences, and worse, physical injury or death. If minors are to be involved with Airsoft gun use, adult supervision and protective gear are an absolute necessity. Finally, Airsoft guns should not be used in unenclosed, public areas.
From a legal standpoint, before anyone purchases an Airsoft gun they should first look into their local and state laws governing the ownership and use of the guns. Knowledgeable and reputable local dealers of the guns will provide this information, but it is important for the consumer to always doublecheck with their local law enforcement agencies and/or a local consumer products attorney.

Your presentation is nothing more then someone's OP and contains no actual facts of what they're trying to state.
How about providing a case of one single death or injury from an airsoft firearm or just admitting that this all about FEELINGS and facts don't matter?

Let's get this straight...I present FACTS, you emote.
Air Soft Gun Injuries
Eye Injuries
According to the University of Alberta, a 2008 study showed that of 1,232 eye injury patients, eight had eye injuries associated with Airsoft guns. The average age of these patients was 18 years.
Bruises and Penetration
According to Air Soft King, an airsoft gun firing at speeds of 300 fps causes painful bruising within 10 feet of another person, and guns firing at 500 fps cause the pellet to penetrate the skin.
Deaths
According to the General Accounting Office (GAO), there were no reports of deaths occurring from the use of toy guns from the years of 1993 to 2002. However, the Incident database for the same period states four deaths occurred where an officer of the law mistook a toy gun for a real gun.

MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN
With a reported injury rate of .006%, this makes airsoft firearms as dangerous as pencils, tennis balls, swings, falling out of bed, playing tag, etc.
You run a higher risk of dying from being prescribed the wrong medicine, by a doctor.
The death's you referred to, were not CAUSED by the airsoft firearm; they were caused by someone doing something they shouldn't have, ie: point anything at a police officer.
You are aware that people have been shot, by acting like they were going to reach for something; but then, you're probably not aware of anything that goes against your FEELINGS.
Did you know that "BB" referes to Ball Bearings?

So now, you are moving the goal posts. Why am I not surprised? I never claimed these were lethal weapons. The reason parents were terrorized was because there was NOTHING about the physical appearance of the gun that was pointed at their kids that would tell them it wasn't a real, lethal handgun.
USFREEDOM911

In your short sightedness, you've failed to recognize that it's the liberals who keep changing the goal posts.
Well that and all the straw men they keep trying to build
Nothing about the physical apperance, except for all the plastic parts that looked like they were made of plastic.

You are fuul of shit, as usual.
The gunman’s wife, who would not give her name, admitted Tuesday night that her husband may have used poor judgment.
“I agree the gun looks real,” she said, adding that her older son purchased the piece at a street fair in Poland. “They shouldn’t have brought it to the playground.”

Now, which one is the Glock?
And your word for the day: polymer
Here's another lesson for USF he will just ignore because it makes him look stupid.
Spray paint the silver gun black and then try and tell them apart from a distance of 40 yards while someone runs with both.

You are wasting your time.
There is no having a rational discussion with a coward like USF...he will continually try to change the subject or, as he has in this thread, move the goalposts so he can claim you aren't answering his question.
Sound familiar?
There is a silver lining to all his nonsense...when you see it being posted, it's proof he knows he's losing the debate.
