A full auto AR-15 is an illegal weapon, a Baretta 9mm semi-auto is not.

Actually both statements are false. A full auto AR-15 is completely legal, if you've paid the proper tax (to do this the AR must have been made before 1986). A Baretta 9mm is illegal in some jurisdictions, several municipalities in Illinois ban all handguns for instance.

Of course both are completely legal, as are *all* other arms, under the US Constitution.

Yeah, should have added the caveat, "in California", where I live. Full auto weapons are illegal here. Hope that takes care of things but the point was the Dems blame the guns for crime instead of the people.

God bless our troops wherever they may be.
