Where they love the governor
I wonder what the range of misdemeanor's there is for something related to a bb gun. I mean how serious of a weapon could a bb gun be considered?

Depending on how it was used (i.e. made somebody think it was an actual firearm), the charges could be pretty bad. I think there's quite a bit of lattitude for definition of "Deadly Weapon".

If they did this, they should go to jail.

I don't care if it was a BB gun or not. The people he robbed didn't know it was a BB gun.

This is just thugs being thugs.

Pretty much this. This wasn't quiet, in fact. We had a huge thread about it this summer.

Carver Hawkeye quiet?

You can't count this one. They have librarians shushing everyone so people can study. I hear they disapprove of the sneakers squeaking as well but so far have not been able to force any changes through.

Calm down doc. It was just a BB gun. I think "thugs" would probably have a real gun.
