The contemporary public refers to "military-style" weapons as assault rifles. That is, if the gun looks at home in the hands of a soldier in camouflage the general public refers to it as an assault rifle. Again, if you do not understand the discussion around gun violence in today's world you should not be arguing over it. Also, you're still arguing semantics and haven't actually said anything, in any of your replies to anyone, about what can be done to curb gun violence which is the exact point the OP meme was making. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] thecrotch@sh.itjust.works -2 points 2 years ago Semantics my ass. Calling for a ban on something that is already illegal instead of addressing the real problem is going to get you nowhere and make you look foolish in the process. permalink fedilink source parent
