That is because it only goes to 2016. I already posted links showing right wing violence going up significantly in 2017 relative to 2016. But suit yourself. Ignorance is a choice.Quote:

No thanks as the left started this crap of theirs after Trump was elected and I sure won't believe a northeast liberal University of Maryland stats on this issue.Quote:

As long as it’s anyone in the media other than FOX News that says or prints it, it’s gospel to Guiss. ABC is as fake and biased as a network can get.Quote:

What is the definition of an assault weapon? I know what an assault rifle is.Quote:

Lol. I know what the AR in AR-15 stands for. I would bet I know more about this platform than you do.Quote:

What I asked was “what is the definition of an assault WEAPON?” Emphasis added for morons. Techman05 was objecting to its use, saying it was improper, and that someone that is not misguided should come tell the talking heads what it is. Well, what is it?
My fault. Forgot I was going to be asked a question by our resident legal authority. I misspoke. Not going to argue with anyone on the board this week. I’m in a good mood.
The AR-15 platform, if equipped with sufficient number of “military features”, is defined as an “assault weapon” under the previous “Assault Weapon Ban” of 1994 (expired in 2004).Quote:

Of course the name was created by mostly liberals to make the weapons sound more dangerous. But let’s be real. The AR-15 platform is far more lethal in MOST circumstances for the average civilian wanting to inflict mas casualty than your semi-auto hunting rifle with longer barrel and no pistol grip. Sure, there are scenarios (like UT tower shooting) where that isn’t the case, but there is a reason the AR-15 is the most popular choice, by far, for these latest run-in-and-shoot-the-place-up events. Its effectiveness in these situations is also why police departments like these rifles.
