Save our Valley!!

Now for stupid question #2.

Does the guy own the land the field is on? Because essentially then, if he's under the legal noise limit and has some way of stopping paintballs from leaving the property (eg. those nets around Golf courses), I'm pretty sure he could tell them of f-off and be done with it.

At least that's how it is ( I believe) in dear old Canadia...

Yes, he is the landowner and the field is for personal use for him and his friends. He doesn't even have more than 15 to 20 people come by on a weekend.

the people fighting the field have suggested that if they win they would like to ban Paintball in their city/county.

they are hoping no one will stand up for their rights and then they will have the ability to do whatever they want.

now the base is being forced to move because of all the encroachment. theres too much of a likely hood theyll land one in someones house, they cant properly simulate night carrier landings because its too bright, etc. so developers defied oceana, and is now forcing them to move.

"dont build past this line because we need this space for mishaps"

im torn between the morally right (paintball) and the "legally" right (home owners). the moral part is hoping that theres a fallacy in the legal part and the legal part is saying that the law is the law.
