Thumpy's 3D House of Airsoft™ @ Scoop.it

RESPECT is a two-way street, a broad avenue that you not only can drive up and down in your cheap little VW, “sporty” Acura or big, expensive Pagani Huayra…but from time to time, you might have to walk ACROSS that road with the rest of us “pedestrians.”  That’s when you discover that the road you pave does not stop at the end of your own driveway, even at 1 Hacker Way.

Writing All Lives Matter doesn’t make someone a racist.  It makes them race-agnostic.  Banning the use of your products (Facebook/Instagram…) for lawful purposes by the users (airsoft and milsim players, as well as law-abiding gun owners) makes you small, petty and controlling. And frankly, control is not what you should be about.  It is what makes you a Zuckerschmuck. Stop it.  Grow up.

Merlin seems to be on the right track with his thoughts, too….as are a lot of other guys commenting on the ‘webz. We need to be the good guys, shining the foregrip-mounted light of fair play on the morons who are hurting our little game. Air Stupids. Bad Sports and both cheaters and cheater-callers.  Mark Z. included.

Jonathan’s got the serious look right here for good reason, as he shares a great update on the fight to CRUSH Massachusetts’ House Bill 3476, updates on  California’s implementation of SB 199, along with New York State’s color rules…and a ton of other important info on this week’s Monday’s show!

CLICK THAT BIG “NO BUTTON” in the PIC ABOVE to get a link directly to the Facebook Page leading the coordination effort and fight to save Airsoft in Mass…and in all of AMERICA, too!

I kinda feel real sadzorz for the guys at retailers and import places in California…as they have to spend an extra amount of their time to spin up customers on this silly law.  But, this is what happens when you let politicians write bad law, don’t crush it with vigilance, and then reap the consequences.

NOTE TO PLAYERS: We have already seen some of you morons…yea, calling you out but NOT sharing your insanity…putting neon tape on your REAL STEEL GUNS to “show those guys in Sacramento…” Show them what, exactly?  That you are stupid and want to get shot?  That you were so intelligent to figure this out?  Please.  Don’t make it worse than it already is.

‘199 Stupid is 199-percent DEAD WRONG!  TREAT, NEVER, KEEP, KEEP is in full force-and-effect still.  “Rule of 4 Stupids” is still the prevailing rule-of-the-street.   Keep all your guns in gun bags/cases/boxes. DO NOT GO OUT IN PUBLIC with any airsoft gun unless it is in a controlled situation. Ever.

Our Buddy MATT FUREY-KING’s face tells the story in this short video. NO ACTION to get your viewpoint out to your MEP – that’s your Member of European Parliament – or, seriously, a reclassification could NO LIE KILL AIRSOFT IN THE EU and BEYOND!  Listen to MFK’s short video below and CLICK THAT BANNER or his link to do your part to save Airsoft from the “Nuclear Option” that’s being proposed to kill your game!

Hmmm..love it when we see guys talking about hard-news airsoft info...and we'd hope that Chris T. and the Replay guys would just search Big Box Store , AIR STUPID or THIS ONE on the 3D House SCOOP.IT page to get their background on this! Yea WE KEYWORD TAG ALL OUR NEWS, so we can be the "memory" of airsoft, too!

CLICK THE PIC to see more from the Replay Channel, too!

Man, the real deal ARMY in Brazil controls their sport?  Big Brother Much?  Still, shops and thousands of players are putting up with it, and marching on!  GOOD FOR YOU DUDES!  Dudettes, too…although we don’t see many in this video from GSG9 BRAZIL….wonder why?  Cultural thing?  ASK EM over at their video chan’….

Yea, short and sweet…just like the video intro from FN over on their YouTube chan for the long-awaited SEMI-AUTO ONLY Real Steel SAW…yea, that and some of the other FN mil-arms will be released in the US market for gunners who want to tote around total awesome 5.56 bangers like their real-mil neighbors!  COUNT US IN!

SERIOUS TIME, Serious “face” from Big Jay…as he tackles THE QUESTION…See what he’s got to say!

That’s right…An Airsoft video you WILL BE TALKING ABOUT for days over on World Star Hip Hop.com….

Did this man do the right thing? The wrong thing?  What would YOU have done in this situation? Should Police have been called?  How about these kids’ parents/guardians? Could getting law enforcement involved have been a bad idea?  Was SHOOTING VIDEO of the encounter and his actions a good idea?

CLICK THE PIC, Watch the video and then LEAVE YOUR COMMENTS on Thumpy’s Socials….Seriously…we want to know

This is coming in from various news outlets around Indianapolis, as 4 young men were arrested and one nearly shot by police Thursday night after they entered an old state hospital

site to play airsoft and get video for a YT channel….

Helmet Tap to SEAN ST.CIN over at Bay Area Airsofters FB page for catching this very DANGEROUS incident

Just another New Year’s Day, or a ‘date which will live in infamy?’  We guess that depends on what you THINK will happen when California’s long-fought and long-dreaded SB 199 takes effect.  And, what legal-beagles in the Golden State might start doing to enforce that law.
