        Assault weapons have no place in civil life. If you love them so much join the Army.

        At first, I did not have the patience to answer you're clear troll argument, but since you apparently are that dense. Law enforcers should have guns. They are handling criminals on a daily basis. But you wanting guns for either self-defense or protection from the military is BS

        Are you always going to be on the ready living your life with one hand on the holster at all times? Of course not, And when it comes the government. What the hell are you going to do against a drone or a F-22?

        You say its bs because i want protection from the military, but now you're asking what defence I would use against a drone or a fighter jet?....your logic is illogical to me.

        If a civilian living in the states needs a gun to "protect" themselves they should be ordered a mental evaluation due to signs of paranoia and schizophrenia

        You know, these pictures of damage incurred by AR 15s should be on the front page of every newspaper in the country! Not so easily dismissed with “thoughts and prayers”. Horrendous damage.

        It is semi automatic and uses large capacity magazines. Those two things alone make it an assault weapon

        By that logic, the 9mm handguns law enforcement carry are assault weapons....a revolver with 4 speed loaders could be an assault weapon....just where does this assault weapon list end?

        The solution is clear: ban all gun ownership by civilians. Gun fetishists' paranoia is a mental disease. They are exactly the type of people who should never be able to touch a gun
