Same here, and add super soakers, airsoft, and paintball. Sure we did shoot at each other with those (because that's literally how those games are played), but it's different.

Now, I do happen to like real guns, but there's also a difference between a Tipman 98 custom and a Glock 19x lmao, and neither are allowed at the appropriate place for the other. Just liking toy guns/paintball or even real ones doesn't mean you're going to be irresponsible or malicious with either.
