True Whale, but apparently the ruling parties are leaning on the legislation very heavily and it looks like it will pass.

There's a huge discussion on it over at MCB.

It's a pretty long way towards making -- the way I heard it explained is that this is coming from the German version of Homeland Security.

I'm not sure there is enough German support for paintball that they will be able to undo the misconceptions about the sport there.
