“AR-15 – America’s most-common assault rifle”

An AR15 is not an assault rifle. It is not select fire. It is a semi-automatic rifle like many others on the market, many of which are used for hunting and target shooting. It merely resembles an assault rifle.

We are losing this war because WE are the ones being dishonest.

Quit this nonsense crap about the people needing AR15s for home protection, hunting and to use in shooting competitions. That's a BS lie. You can' protect your home with a revolver or a pump shotgun. We need AR15s to protect ourselves from GOVERNMENT !!

When GOVERNMENTS come for your liberty they are not going to bring a revolver, they are going to bring a machine gun. THIS IS THE REASON WE MUST HAVE MILITARY WEAPONS IN THE HANDS OF THE PEOPLE.

The truth needs to start with our side.

He has a point. The “assault rifle” in semi-automatic is not more dangerous than the common conception of most hunting rifles. I have a Remington 700 30-06 with a 3x9 scope. In the hands of a psycho killer on a rooftop, that gun would be deadly indeed. Seems to me that years ago, the crazy bell tower killer in Texas did exactly that.

This thread has just added to the FreeRepublic "bang list" (firearms interest list) by adding the keyword "banglist".

Any time a firearms-related thread is created on FreeRepublic, please be sure to add the "banglist" keyword to it so that interested FReepers don't miss it. Just a suggestion.

The Left isn't warring on guns. It's warring on the right of private citizens to own them.

People who want a state monopoly on something aren't against what they want to monopolize.

If gun owners stand together, the Second Amendment will be preserved. If they don’t, it will be endangered. Coming months will show which it is.

That can't be emphasized enough.
