As a citizen of Kennewick for twelve (12) years, I believe a certain ordinance should be reconsidered. This ordinance makes it illegal to fire a paintball, BB, or pellet gun inside city limits. I enjoy responsible shooting of targets with these devices. A paintball, BB, or pellet gun cannot cause serious damage or injury (if and damage or injury) if used responsibly and according to safe gun handling guidelines. Any sportsman knows that BB and pellet guns are not to be aimed or pointed at people, and that paintball guns are only to be shot at people wearing the proper protective wear and from a safe distance. I know these rules are not always followed, but those people who choose not to abide by them are a minority.
