That's correct. Anybody who uses a firearm, no matter whether it's an air gun, a BB gun, a pea gun, whatever type of article that is a firearm or a gun of any sort, in a threatening manner is subject to charges. The amendment proposed in this bill doesn't change that fact at all.
It is a fact, however—and please, I don't say this in a pejorative manner, because police officers have a very difficult job and do an admirable job—that not all police officers have an understanding of firearms law or of what safe storage or safe transportation is.
In this particular context, you could certainly see a charge being laid against somebody under the letter of the law as it currently stands. That would be unfortunate, because in the end the court would throw it out, but somebody would still have to face that issue in court. This just clears it up for police officers and everybody else in terms of understanding exactly what the law means.
