      Worse, even if they were right, they’re still wrong.

      You can’t legally shoot someone who is just standing there doing nothing wrong, even with paintballs or non-lethal weapons.

      If you pointed a paintball gun at somebody IRL, and when questioned by the cops, you said it was just a paintball gun, that would not be exculpatory. It would be a confession.

        Even more wrong, because the person is not just standing there - they’re in a fucking car which moving. Imagine the consequences of shooting tear gas into a moving car…

          If the person is in a moving car then they should straight up not be filming, unless they are in the back seat of the driver’s side. Either way, shooting a tear gas canister into a car would be incredibly dangerous.
