The author doesn't even know that the AR-15 isn't an "assault rifle" because it's semiautomatic. To be an actual assault rifle a weapon needs full auto capability and to fire a medium power round.

I once saw a study conducted of liberal reporters, etc. regarding guns & gun control. The study found that few actually knew anything about firearms and firearms nomenclature, and what's more, they weren't interested in learning.

Ignorance is bliss.

The only people who ever called the civilian AR-15 an "assault rifle" are the evil ones who concocted the now defunct "assault weapons" ban and their uninformed, ignorant, nitwit followers.

Did you happen to catch Katie Couric during the D.C. sniper hunt? She sat down with a BATF agent to talk about the case, and, sitting there thoughtfully fingering a .223 round said "I understand these bullets are particularly dangerous because they spin in flight."

Priceless.
