The hard choice would be to go out of spite or stay away to help her go out of business?
Why go some place where you are a target in shooting galley?
But parse the words, a little, if you please. No “assault rifles”. First of all, there is no legally defined category of sidearms that is called an “assault rifle”. There are scary-looking guns that superficially resemble certain military weapons, but functionally, their method of being handled and fired is very much like a typical wooden-stock hunting rifle. Nor are they easily concealed, as would be a revolver or pistol.
Note that the statement was “no assault rifles”. Does this mean that some imaginary device, that would never exist anyway, is the only one banned? That smaller handguns, or conventional rifles or shotguns, are OK? Just what did the statement mean, anyway?
The Islamic jihadist terrorists would show up with Sig Sauer MCX rifles, Colt AR-15 rifles, or even M16A2 mission rifles. None of these, technically, are “assault rifles” (remember, the category simply does not exist).
