LOL Lola...are you for real? A BB gun is just that, a GUN. A weapon. That man had a BB lodged in his jaw. How about if it had been a few inches higher and blinded him? The attacker, if caught should be charged with attempted murder.
And for your information, a paintball gun could have blinded the man also. If you don't believe me then have someone shoot you in the face with either weapon and see how it feels. Perhaps better yet, get a wolf that has just had it's left from foreleg hacked off for 150 bucks do the shooting.:)
