Airsoft groups on social media and forums went lit up when reports from major news outlets confirm that airsoft YouTuber Gregory Wong, popular known as Spartan117gw in airsoft, was arrested in Los Angeles last 2 June for allegedly posing as a member of the National Guard.
The National Guard has been deployed in cities by state governors to help keep peace and order amidst the protests and rioting brought about by the killing of George Floyd by a policeman in Minneapolis.
