If someone wangs a person across the face with a metal bat. That’s an Assault Weapon.

Don’t know if anyone can define an “assault weapon,” but we can most certainly give a good example (if not definition) of an “*sshat weapon” - and the example is Diane Feinestein...bimbo first class and genuine dorkess.

What is an assault weapon?

It’s the weapon that I’m holding in my hands when you try to take it away from me.

“Assault weapon” is a wholly manufactured legal term, designed to promulgate negative stereotypes about guns, that was bastardized from the german term for “assault rifle” reserved for a variety of battle rifle with fully selective fire. It’s also something that makes Diane Feinstein have to change her undershorts.

With a screwdriver in one minute, you can transform a soft and cuddly Ruger 10/22 into a fearful-looking black rifle, simply by changing out the stock.

People are so easily led.

I keep one in my car - it’s not useful for hunting or self-defense. I only use it to shoot other people - it’s a paint ball gun.

To most people, “What Is An Assault Weapon” is about as clear as (including most of those calling themselves such) as.....”What Is A Consevrvative”.....

It’s a weapon that looks mean. And so, it has to have a name that is scary.

There. How’s that for an accurate description? Now, let’s base all policy on that succinct and accurate description.

Oh, mean looking handguns should be next ... and we should probably include mean looking knives. We, as a nation, should be against mean-looking things ... and we should give them appropriately scary names.

If you believe her interview with fatass Candy Crowley on CNN, the ‘tragic’ events that she witnessed in 1978’s San Francisco supervisors offices immediately after Dan White killed GAY Harvey Milk were done with a frigging Assault Weapon... No mention that actually, these murderes (White and anotheer) were accomplished using a 6-shot revolver.

Feinstein is an opportunistic bitch. That’s all. Wouldn’t surprise me if she has one of each weapon type she wants to ban either in her home or on her bodyguards’ persons....

An “assault weapon” is any weapon that would be handy to have around to fend off an assault.

Any device that can be used by the American people to adequately defend themselves from the armies, agents, and auxiliaries of tyrannical Federal, State, or local government.

An assault weapon is anything that “looks scary” or holds “too many bullets”. Essentially, any gun.

“Assault weapon” is another example of how liberals twist the English language to mislead people. Just like they changed “Global warming” to “Climate change” so they can further the hoax when it is freezing out, so they also created this term for guns when examples of self-defense are brought up. “Wow he defended himself with a gun and saved lives! Waah but it’s still an assault weapon and not a defense weapon!”

The thing is ANYTHING can be classified as an “assault weapon”. A pillow is an assault weapon. You can suffocate someone with a pillow. Ban pillows!

This is just another example of how the communist propaganda machine posing as our MSM brainwashes the public, they create new terms all the time to mislead, to push forth an agenda. “Illegals” are now “undocumented workers”..They get “workers” in that term when in reality they are “foreigners who take jobs from US citizens” which is happening here and has been happening here in New York city for years, especially in the construction industry. A lot of construction workers are out of work because of these Fs.

I have a 30 year-old Montblanc ballpoint pen in my shirt pocket.

I can kill people with it.

That's an assault weapon.

The first person to coin the phrase “assault weapon” was Adolph Hitler, anbd here it is:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StG_44

The first full automatic rifle, in production BEFORE Mr. Kalashnikov’s AK-** series of rifles.

Any of the rifles that are on Senator Babs Feinstein’s list, are SEMI-AUTOMATIC.

Just to trip these Congressional idiots up, until we vote them, or (let’s just leave that unanswered, for now);

I’d buy TWO, yes, TWO lever action rifles, well, maybe THREE.
1. Caliber .30-30, your choice of brand.
2. Caliber .45-70 (Read the tests done in Sandy Hook, NJ, 1800’s.)
3. Caliber .357 Magnum, your choice of brand.

Yes, I have heard all the arguments between an SKS (semi), AK (semi), AR (semi), and all the rest, that have always brought out a (semi) to compare.

Do you, the reader, see the commonality of those arguing? I don’t think they realize, that the legal eyes, Unconstitutional or not, are looking at (semi) right now, and not lever action. Yes, I support their right to own them, but I also admit that I have shot them in the past, while in military uniform, and they are not my cup of tea. You can blaze away, singularly firing each cartridge, as fast as your finger doesn’t cramp, and that’s ok. I ‘know my limitations’, know my tubular magazine limit, know to ‘shoot two, load two’, and above all, know my range length capability, with each fired cartridge and lever throw. I, also, know that a successfully launched .45-70 projectile will have enough, at range enough, to do what is required. Take a ‘one ounce fishing weight’, launch it with enough velocity to mortally wound an American Bison at 300 yards, at point of aim/point of impact, from a lever action rifle.
(Watch Hickok45 on YouTube hit the gong, (loudly), at 200 yards!)

Have a nice day!

I have read Di-Fi’s bill.

Her definition of an illegal weapon (assault weapon or not) is like the court’s definition of pornography. You will know it when you see it.

Seriously, I have inherited an M1 Carbine with 10, 15 and 30 round magazines. It is the paratrooper model with colapsable stock. Unless I toss the stock and the 15 and 30 round magazine, it is a banned weapon by her “new” definition. Even then it may still be illegal as it is “capable” of accepting a magazine of over ten rounds.
