They are really stepping on their peckers this time. The news people in this are NOT being sympathetic to the BATFags. One of the .gov spokespeople effectively admitted they are not converting the guns to fire live ammo, but did the grab as part of a "public awareness issue".

IE, they wanted to play the intimidation game with the airsofters and come up with a good scare story for the public in order to justify their jobs.
