Why do I bother, you're probably just another weenie leftist who think "assault weapons" or "weapons of war" are actual meaningful and intelligent lables and actually thinks a "silencer" is just like in the movies and will muffle a gun shot to the point of being barely audible allowing nefarious bad guys to silently spray lead

I kind of love the whole "Trump wanted a photo op with the NYPD this morning" story. It's like he wanted to keep the streak alive on loving up everyday but needed a nice low-key way to do it out of respect.

Okay I saw some comments by Obama that illuminated it for me just a few minutes after I posted that. "All lives matter" is based on the belief that "black lives matter" causes police to lose their lives because they aren't allowed to defend themselves or something.

Defiance posted:Why isn't assault weapon a meaningful term, exactly? Any firearm can be used in an assault, and any firearm used in an assault can be quite deadly! Meanwhile the semi-automatic rifles labeled as "ASSAULT WEAPONS" and "WEAPONS OF WAR" by mouth-breathing pussies are literally no more dangerous than any semi-automatic rifles they do not label as "ASSAULT WEAPONS." Usually if it has a wood stock and/or lacks a bunch of cheesy "tactical" mods they are instead referred to as "hunting rifles" by these imbeciles. If a Ruger mini 14 is black and has an adjustable stock and a barrel shroud, its an "ASSAULT WEAPON OF WAR" and must be BANNED. But if it has a wood stock it's a hunting rifle and A-OK.

Defiance posted:Why isn't assault weapon a meaningful term, exactly? Extreme overemphasis on highly technical grognards gun terminology is a common obfuscatory technique used by gun fuckers to keep the argument away from actual issues, it's best to blow right past it and continue to refer to clips and machine guns. Also, just say ban all semi autos, they lose their loving minds over that one.

But that is extremely stupid, because the term assault weapon is a useful shorthand way to refer to a class of weapons. I think the term submachine gun is dumb, because they really don't operate like or resemble machine guns at all, but I use the term because it conjures up a helpful mental image that let's people know exactly what I'm talking about. I mean, I'll call it a sporting rifle if the NRA really desperately wants me to, but it's still useful to have a blanket term.

Defiance posted:But that is extremely stupid, because the term assault weapon is a useful shorthand way to refer to a class of weapons. Apparently not since in past legislation thought up by Democrats the term can encompass and at the same time not encompass the literal exact same firearm depending on how scary it looks to a moron who doesn't know anything about guns. A more useful way to refer to semi-automatic rifles would be . . . . "semi-automatic rifles" But the Democrats won't do this since proposing to simply outlaw semi-automatic rifles would be wildly unpopular and properly perceived by the general public as a blatant violation of the second amendment and nothing more than authoritarian "gun-grabbing." So they prey on the portion of the population that doesn't understand guns in order to get their foot in the door and get people comfortable with gun bans, by arbitrarily categorizing some semi-automatic rifles as ASSAULT WEAPONS based on physical characteristics that literally have zero effect on how "deadly" a firearm is. A sick criminal who goes on a shooting spree and uses a Ruger Mini 14 that does not have an adjustable stock, a comfort feature, or a barrel shroud, a safety feature that helps prevent burns, or a black paint job will be no less capable using this "hunting rifle" than if he used the exact same firearm, except in black and with those comfort and safety features. They're the exact same semi-automatic rifle and like all semi-automatic rifles from any manufacturer of any style and appearance they fire one round for every one trigger pull oh my god why am I wasting time trying to argue without high-school dropouts who think they understand astrophysics
