LOS ANGELES—Los Angeles wants air rifles, BB and pellet guns to be painted in bright colors in the wake of two police shootings.

Supporters think it could help officers distinguish between those weapons and the real thing in a tense confrontation.

The Los Angeles Daily News says the City Council on Wednesday ordered drafting of the measure. Two shootings three years ago involved police and people armed with a BB gun and an air pistol.

Let's make a statement with this. Post as many images that you can find of REAL Firearms that have been painted. This measure will put every officer in Los Angeles in danger, physically and legally, if it passes.
