Assault weapons DO NOT EXIST [View all] packman Sep 2014 OP

Never seen it defined that way Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #1

But, that is an apt description and the reason they are so popular among gun cultists. Hoyt Sep 2014 #4

Not really Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #9

Sure it is. I doubt you have one of those for duck hunting. Hoyt Sep 2014 #11

I do not hunt Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #15

What a peculiar choice of usernames then, Mr. Duckhunter who does not hunt Electric Monk Sep 2014 #30

Pretty good DashOneBravo Sep 2014 #60

As I have pointed out many times before Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #63

I worked with these Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #65

Right. Every definition is made up at some time. Eat your bow tie Tucker. rickford66 Sep 2014 #50

Wow... chervilant Sep 2014 #2

Define an assault weapon. Hemmingway Sep 2014 #3

Functionally identical, maybe. But, one appeals to yahoos, racists, and wannabe militia members. Hoyt Sep 2014 #5

They're the exact same thing with different clothes. Hemmingway Sep 2014 #6

That's the point Hemmingway. Hunters might be attracted to one, but yahoos, racists, Hoyt Sep 2014 #7

We know you want to ban guns Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #12

No, I really want to keep guns out of the hands of yahoos, racists, and milita wannabes. Hoyt Sep 2014 #13

Has to happen eventually, otherwise every single person and child will have 200 guns and randys1 Sep 2014 #38

Excellent post. The Australians bit the bullet in 1996, we can too. The sooner the better. Hoyt Sep 2014 #45

Yeah, the Aussie's did do that, IronGate Sep 2014 #49

The Aussie's can read, gun culture and 5 of the Supreme Court Justices can't. Hoyt Sep 2014 #52

Except that's not true and you well know it as has been pointed out IronGate Sep 2014 #56

you're right, let's ban both spanone Sep 2014 #8

So because you disapprove of the culture, you want to ban them. krispos42 Sep 2014 #19

Do you consider yourself part of the "yahoos, racists, and wannabe militia members" culture? Hoyt Sep 2014 #26

Considering you want your laws passed based on your definition... krispos42 Sep 2014 #32

So, your point is, they both are? Since they're both designed for the same thing, killing. nt Electric Monk Sep 2014 #10

Glad to see you made your way over here. NuclearDem Sep 2014 #22

You may be a gun nut if flamin lib Sep 2014 #14

Anything can be an "assault weapon" IronGate Sep 2014 #46

You may be a gun nut if flamin lib Sep 2014 #69

Wow. linuxman Sep 2014 #16

good thing hand guns Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #17

You make an interesting point, unintentionally Electric Monk Sep 2014 #27

It was quite intentional Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #31

It's an arbitrary standard. krispos42 Sep 2014 #18

The Sandy Hook weapon was not an assault weapon hack89 Sep 2014 #20

Yeah, but the gun lovers buy them for those cosmetic features. That tells you something Hoyt Sep 2014 #23

So? hack89 Sep 2014 #24

They are being used to intimidate a lot of people and many have them in preparation Hoyt Sep 2014 #37

Yes, it is called for safety Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #35

Yeah, these yahoos are worried about "safety." Do you really believe that? Hoyt Sep 2014 #42

Wow you can use the google Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #54

The dead children from Sandy Hook might beg to differ as to whether your semantics matter Electric Monk Sep 2014 #39

That response is both irrelevant and insensitive derby378 Sep 2014 #41

Did you mean to reply to Hack89 instead? They brought it up. Magazine size matters. nt Electric Monk Sep 2014 #44

Nice attempt at deflection, but no. derby378 Sep 2014 #47

not with VA Tech, those were low capacity versions Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #55

Wrong. 4b5f940728b232b034e4 Sep 2014 #58

Wrong. IronGate Sep 2014 #59

So you want their sacrifice to be in vaid? 4b5f940728b232b034e4 Sep 2014 #61

And just what kind would I be genius? IronGate Sep 2014 #62

The Origin of "Assault Rifle" Dirty Socialist Sep 2014 #21

And "assault weapon" was coined to confuse people hack89 Sep 2014 #28

We have Josh Sugarmann of VPC to thank for that derby378 Sep 2014 #43

It was coined to attract gun buyers. That's why people are attracted to them. Hoyt Sep 2014 #48

It was coined by gun control groups in the 90's hack89 Sep 2014 #51

Wrong, again. IronGate Sep 2014 #57

Well there you go. Send that Nazi info to Little Mr. Bowtie Boy. Paladin Sep 2014 #68

They don't!? Wow. Rex Sep 2014 #25

"Assault Weapon" is a legal term? SonofMarx Sep 2014 #29

Unless it's fully automatic, like that UZI, it's not an assault rifle. NYC_SKP Sep 2014 #33

I think you mean "Assault Rifle" Duckhunter935 Sep 2014 #36

I did indeed. Thanks, edited! NYC_SKP Sep 2014 #53

As a supporter of strong gun control laws, Nye Bevan Sep 2014 #34

Tucker Carlson taking cues from a liberal Democrat like me? Wow... derby378 Sep 2014 #40

A pool noodle can be an assault weapon if used incorrectly. ileus Sep 2014 #64

The same reasoning that says assault weapons don't exist baldguy Sep 2014 #66

He's wrong. And has a point. Igel Sep 2014 #67

We're locking this since it does not meet the GD SOP. greatauntoftriplets Sep 2014 #70
