    I would agree with this. It is why I advocate repealing the Second Amendment.

    The AR-15 that a civilian can own is not a military grade weapon. It's a semi-automatic.

    It just looks scary/cool.

    People who want to debate this issue really should educate themselves a little bit.

    Sure there is. It is food that people enjoy.

    I drank a Founders Imperial Stout last night while watching television. I benefited from that experience.

    Anyone know the oldest copy of the Bible? Is it a 1st edition? The Bible has been altered more than Joan Rivers.

    Being semi-auto doesn't mean it's not military-grade. Doesn't mean it is either. But the fire rate isn't a determining factor.

    "Military grade" is more a marketing term than anything else. "Mil-spec" is more accurate.

    I understand the difference. And still think that no civilian should own one as its useage is inconsistent with any rational civilian need

    Any members of our military being issued an AR-15 that you or I could go buy at Walmart?

    So she is harming hundreds of thousands of young people and financially benefiting in the process and she can do this unilaterally (without Congressional OK)? This ain't right.
    I presume Trumpists love this. And that is perhaps even more disgusting.

    The more relevant question is this:

    Do you think that you should be able to buy that weapon at Wal-Mart?

    There you go.

    And then you get to define what a rational need is too, right?

    This is just like the belief that punching a Nazi is fine. Why wouldn't it be, right? Nazi's suck.

    Then, all you need to do is define Steve Scalise as a Nazi, and it's open season on him.
