Drew gasps? I watched the video.
Looked like most of them were having a good chuckle.
This is all kabuki theater.

Mylife,
Look up the Lautenberg amendment that passed congress in 2004 or so.
I seriously think this guy may have broken the law under that provision.
We had better ban Autos and stick shifts too, after all those are "semi autos"

A Virginia lawmaker who drew gasps from his colleagues when he brandished a borrowed AK-47 during an anti-gun speech Thursday was found guilty in 2002 of committing a vicious 1999 assault, The assault should be a felony conviction which makes his possession of a firearm another felony.

Last time I saw a real “semi auto” transmission, it was in a 1971 Volkswagen Super Beetle. Had the stickshift, but no clutch. Two forward speeds; just low gear and high gear.
Used to see buses like that all the time in Dublin, back when they had Leyland Titan buses (rear entrance) and Leyland Atlanteans (front entrance); those had five-speed “semi autos” although the bus drivers would start in second gear during normal driving.

Theres no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there arent enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? Whats there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted and you create a nation of law-breakers - and then you cash in on guilt. Atlas shrugged

The article doesn't say whether Morrissey was ever convicted of a felony or even a misdemeanor, but a "vicious assault" and "death threat" certainly sound like felonious behavior.
Perhaps one reason Democrats are so hell-bent on gun control is that so many of them are forbidden by current laws to possess firearms, because they have demonstrated dangerous behavior in their past.

No, but the guy holding the AK looks kind of stupid.
He obviously needs to attend an NRA Gun Safety Course.

As I recall, even the manual syncro mesh gear drive could be worked by ear without a clutch
