So I was reading the local paper and I came across this article that blew me away. I didn’t know that Nerf guns were all that
popular on campus but I guess I was mistaken. I’m pretty sure that this all stems from the concealed-weapons debate they are having at CSU right now, but c’mon…Nerf Guns? They’re saying you could be arrested if you are caught with one, and that sightings will be treated like real gun sightings. Wtf does that mean? Are they going to shoot you if you are behaving in a suspicious manner? This is absurd, but REAL!!! What’s next, squirt guns?
Anyway here is the original news article from 9NEWS.com:
“BOULDER – If you’re caught walking around the University of Colorado at Boulder with a Nerf gun, you could be arrested. Notices have been posted around the campus’ dorm buildings, warning students that Nerf gun sightings will be treated like real gun sightings.
Nerf guns have been popping up around CU this week, after some students started playing the popular game “Humans vs. Zombies.” It’s similar to the game of tag.
The humans are supposed to shoot the zombies with Nerf guns to keep them away.
Since they’re not allowed to use Nerf guns, students are now using rolled up socks.
“It seems to me that if we go through the proper channels, they’ll let us use them in the future,” sophomore Tyler Benjamin said.
More than 600 students are signed up to play the game at CU.
University Police said they haven’t had any issues, yet.
The game continues through the weekend. It starts at dawn and ends at dusk. “
