Sure. And fired at me. Multiple times. Squirt guns count, right?

No but I have witnessed someone else having guns pointed at them (cops)...and they (the criminal) had a gun in their hand. The situation ended peacefully, thankfully, considering I was next to it all.

Yup. And he shot me in the leg too. He made the excuse that he thought it wasn't loaded, but I seriously doubt that.

No guns as far as I know, just rockets and bombs.

I mean, do squirt guns count? Dart guns?

Why aren't BB guns considered real guns?
They still shoot metal bullets that can harm or even kill.

Good point. My brother had campus roommates that were popping him with one of those things. It might not have been a BB, but something similar. I know it left some marks. He reported the roommates and then they had to do community service. Two of them accepted without complaint, but the third put up a fight. Who just happened to be the one who gave my brother the most trouble!

Because they are powered by air, not powder cartridges.

My friend got mugged at gunpoint under a bridge, and houses I lived fairly close to used to get shot at pretty frequently. I've been pretty lucky myself though.
