Yes, I was turning this into a what would you do scenario. Following the lines of most self defense training, the situation and a weapon being fired at you should result in returned fire. Most cities consider anything that fires a projectile as a weapon. Returning fire on a weapon being fired at you seems reasonable. Yet, it would really feel bad to shoot someone for being stupid and suffering legal issues for what is really a justified reaction. Being able to determine at the moment that you are being shot with a paintball gun seems a life or death decision that a victim is being unreasonable forced to make. NOBODY should be shooting/harming you unless there is provocation (as in you threatened their life in some manner).
