At a typical Airsoft game, in play, we are all consenting to suspend a few rights, IE assault with a weapon as one, in the name of the game. All of us in a typical game are indeed shooting projectiles at our colleagues without intent to harm in the purpose of sport.
Same thing happens in a hockey fight, both are consenting to the assault on eachother for the sport. There is a fine line however and sometimes it can be difficult to spot it, and stop before crossing it.
This, was not that, this was as has been said, assault with a weapon with full intent of harm. Waiver, being at a field, having some PPE on, does not matter, this was assault with intent with a weapon with zero intent of the sport.
I am sure this will spark more bad airsoft publicity because most cannot seperate these facts.
