Geraldo Rivera Says the ‘AR’ in AR-15 Means ‘Automatic Rifle’
Breitbart ^ | 01-18-2023 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 01/18/2023 7:52:49 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

FOX News personality Geraldo Rivera backed President Biden’s push for an “assault weapons” ban and said that the “AR” in AR-15 stands for “automatic rifle” on Tuesday’s The Five.

Newsweek quoted Rivera telling the co-hosts, “I submit to you, ladies and gentlemen, there is no legitimate reason … to have an AR-15.”

He described the AR-15 as a “machine gun” that people own in order to make them feel “macho.”

Well Crap.
All this time, I thought all them anti First Amendment congress critters said it meant Assault Rifle.
Funny thing, every ArmaLite Rifle 15 I have ever seen for sale was only in semi-auto with no select fire.

But Geraldo Rivera is a TV ‘news’man and an expert, so who am I to argue with him

Geraldo wins the soundbite fight.

Very likely true. Not to mention, half the guys who try to argue the point based on "facts", don't get it right either (which is always funny to watch)...

I was that kid, who had all the Cheech and Chong records who lent them out, so the other kids could record it.

“He should be looking for the Mysteries of Al Capone’s Vault”

Then he would have called ‘em “choppers.”

That’s weird. I was raised learning that AR meant Azhoe Rivera.

Everyone in Geraldo’s ‘community’ thinks it DOES stand for ‘assault rifle’.

That explains why you act all high and mighty on other topics such as Ukraine as well.

And “Geraldo Rivera” stands for “Gerry Rivers”, his real name.
