The ,eft feels that if you say a lie enough times, it becomes a truth
The guns civilians have are not assault weapons- not even close- they are semi automatic guns only- and assault rifle is a dual fire gun capable of fully automatic fire
They have lied about civilian guns being assault weapons so often now that many sheep think they actually are
The reason they have cha get the definition to suit their agenda is because they know that if they called them what they actuslly are, semi automatic rifles, noone would go for a ban beczuse many other guns are also semi automatic, and if they ban one semi auto, then they must ban all semi autos- but if they call the AR 15 and others like that “assault weapons” and “weapons of war”, they can hone in on one particular class of semi automatic, get their ban, then go to work banning other semi automatics later based on new lies being trotted out as new truth
7-6? A committee vote?
The only reasonable definition of an “assault weapon” is any weapon used in an assault. That could be a rifle, pistol, knife, cricket bat, or a banana. Aesthetics or magazine capacity or rate of fire are are details. Our ancestors were happily killing each other in bunches long before the invention of gun powder. Caesar managed to kill a million Gauls with nothing but edged weapons, slings, and rock and bolt throwing artillery. It’s not a weapon problem. It’s a people problem.
