The ban was strengthened in 1986. Assault rifles have been essentially illegal since the national firearms act of 1934. Assault rifles have been used in 0 recent mass shootings, and people on the internet screaming for an assault rifle ban to solve the problem of mass shootings are fucking idiots.
Excuse me? What exactly do you think my understanding of the issue is? I’m not the one using the term “assault weapons” or pushing for a redundant ban on assault rifles. I’m just the guy saying “don’t let the conversation get stuck on the definition of types of guns otherwise we’ll never end up discussing gun control.” Different statements. Don’t pretend they aren’t, boo. Playing pretend is for kids, remember? Remember when daddy told you that?
The ban was in 1986 jfc.

An AR-15 is still an assault rifle. It’s based on the assault rifle. Trying to hide that is just pandering to the anti gun side.
Ok, introduce a bill to ban assault rifles. I’m sure it’ll be very effective and solve the mass shootings problem.
Notice how we’re still quibbling over definitions? Because of you?
Yeah, I’ve set back your progress in getting assault rifles banned, set it back all the way to 1934
Are you trying to respond to something I said? Because you’re not doing very well.
Oh no a guy who doesn’t understand the issue he’s talking about thinks I’m doing a bad job
