The only purpose of "assault" weapons is to kill people.

pointless statistics. What in the hell difference does it make to those who are dead what kind of a fucking gun killed them? 85 Americans die every fucking day from guns. Homicide, or suicide, assault rifle, or .22 single shot -- it makes no difference because the fucking NRA and people like you enabled and assisted with these unnecessary deaths. Americans are dying because of guns every day, and gun deaths are on pace to outnumber automobile deaths. But you want to have a discussion about which weapons are more efficient at killing?

Statistically speaking, Americans are more likely to die from guns than citizens from any other country in the fucking world! Are you NRA puppets proud of that fact as you hide behind the 2nd Amendment and twist its meaning? We hold the world record for gun deaths, and you people are proud of that? Statistically speaking, the NRA bought and paid for politicians who support gun manufacturers and their fucking "right" to spread death and misery all across this country.

Keep using meaningless statistics to support your NRA-directed positions, and watch as the American people begin to dismantle your stranglehold on our communities. Recent polls show that you are, at long last, losing the battle for your fight to place a gun in every hand, and for any reason.
