I was about to say, here in Louisiana we shoot back. With real guns.

And to those who say a paintball can't harm a vehicle, that's actually incorrect. Most paintball guns fire at a muzzle velocity of about 300 FPS, which is enough to cause damage to a car's paint job.

Having used old cars as bunkers before, I can personally vouch for this

You can fool some of the people all of the time, all of the people some of the time......

To our knowledge, no shots have been fired so far.

Meanwhile, the Durham police department has stepped up its game in-and-around the affected neighborhoods and speeders has reportedly all but disappeared.

I think the message alone is what is deterring the speeders. The message brings the police into the neighborhood, which in turn, reduces speeding in the area. It's a bluff that has worked.
