I'm not a gun owner. Why does anyone need an assault weapon?

Because your question, like the Constitution Ignorant Trump, goes directly against the 2nd-Amendment:

II Amendment: A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
Donald Trump is supposed to defend and uphold the US Constitution. How is he going to do when he disagrees with it?

Donald Trump is NOT Ready for Prime-Time.

Okay...the right to bear arms shall not be infringed. Does that mean a person who is so inclined could have a nuclear weapon?

I get it that citizens can be armed. for self defense, to protect others and property, and to protect ones rights against an out of control government. Somebody already explained to me the definition of "assault weapons" so I have a clearer picture.

But I don't think someone saying some kinds of weapons should be restricted is a bad thing. I understand, though, that it's a slippery slope and if the gov starts restricting things, it wouldn't be long before squirt guns are illegal.

I don't think it's a reason to discount Trump. I think it's a conversation we need to have. Aren't members of Trump's family hunters? So, I doubt he's a gun-grabber.
