I thought it was 32 ft/sec/sec. What are meters?

Assault weapon definition: A weapon used to assault a person or persons. Example: I was assaulted by an assailant who was using a fill in blank,________rock, club, knife, broken bottle, revolver, shotgun, rifle, black jack, brass knuckles, sword, baseball bat, axe, hammer, or a large dildo.

It just chaps me sometimes, that a group of people (the political and social Left)
can be SO WRONG about EVERYTHING and get away with SO MUCH.
It’s SO FRUSTRATING….

anything can be an assault weapon. A rock, a rifle, a handgun, a person's fist, a squirrel swung with enough velocity

somewhere along the line, any gun that doesn’t look like an old winchester is an assault weapon. they’re looking at style...not capability.

And a president that probably doesn’t know what day of the week it is, among everything else.

What’s an assault weapon? Any weapon that assaults our delicate feelings.

A transportation secretary who doesn’t know anything about roads.

Or trucks.

Or trains.

Or prison (but should).

Of course, Biden’s also a lawyer turned career politician. Same old s**t. These are not the people who give honest, straightforward common sense responses. These are NOT people we want in leadership roles.

We want leaders and we get lawyers.

Bingo. By not defining what an assault weapon is, they are free to define it as what ever they want it to be.

An E-tool is an effective assault weapon but has no firing capability.

They mean AR15s and their equivalents, because their owners are the impediment to their totalitarian plans.
