I thought burst/auto capability was the bare minimum for an "assault rifle" fear mongering notwithstanding. nah bro high capacity clips and sweet plastic attachments on a regular old rifle make it for assaults then you add a nice bump stock and chew some more red man

Considering the name assault rifle is a made up term without a strict definition the most popular answer is that it's big black and scary.

Everyone knows what assault rifle means until it's time to legislate it. Then gunbros suddenly go dyslexic and can't figure it out. Must be a rifle that assaults. Herp derp. Nope, impossible to define what guns we are talking about. Better not try.

At least some of the NFL players might remember that the US bombed North Korea into the Stone Age from their college history courses.

SpacePig posted:Do people not know that the Korean War happened or something? It's called The Forgotten War for a reason. E: from Wikipedia: It has been referred to in the English-speaking world as "The Forgotten War" or "The Unknown War" because of the lack of public attention it received both during and after the war, and in relation to the global scale of World War II, which preceded it, and the subsequent angst of the Vietnam War, which succeeded it. EE: my public education about it was maybe a couple of paragraphs, if even. It was just a sorta, "oh yeah we fought some commies and then Vietnam."

And the fact that there's no longer a country of South Vietnam. e: This is a genuine question from someone who's not very good at history: For all of the chest puffing we do about Capitalism's victories over Socialism, has the US actually won a modern war against a Socialist or Communist country?

That and stealing some of Europe and Asia's best scientists sure helped (the US managed to bag the entire Japanese biological warfare program, as far as I know). Nazi war criminals put us on the moon! Sorta.
