York is baffled by that attitude, saying semiautomatic rifles aren’t needed for hunting or self-defense.

“It’s a weapon of war, not of sport,” York said. “I’m sure it will be a political battle, but the officers are out in the street fighting that battle every day.”

Where does it say in the 2nd Ammendment about the right to bear arms only for hunting? Oh yeah, now I see it: “shall not be infringed,...except for hunting”

Sounds like he hates getting interupted all the time and distracted from his donuts and coffee.

Yes, there is that ultimate truth:

“The only purpose of an asault rifle is to kill large numbers of people, which is why the police need them.”

hmmm...

Intentionally conflating "semi-automatic" with "select fire"? He can't be ignorant enough to not know the difference...

Or does he intend all shotguns, deer rifles, etc, be required to be bolt action or single shot?

No, I think he, like all democrats seeking gun control, is intentionally conflating the terms to deceive people.
