Fight the Gel Blaster Ban in WA

We would appreciate the Minister, the Commissioner and the Premier, to reconsider the announced ban of gel blasters for the benefit of the community, and the entire state of WA.

Why is this important?

The recent announcement of a blanket ban on gel blasters was done without proper consideration of several important factors:

* No proper consultation with actual gelball community representatives.
* Potential harm to mental health of significant numbers of players including: Veterans, the Disabled, Spectrum Disorders, and those with various other health issues.
* Loss of MASSIVE financial opportunities in both legalised sales and licensing.

There is also the HUGE potential for public humiliation of Minister Papalia, WAPOL and WA Labor (See the PR disaster that happened when South Australia tried to ban gel blasters).
