“Did you watch O’Reilly last night?”
O’Reilley has drunk deeply of the Josh Suggarman kool aide.

Violence Policy Center Director
“Assault weapons... are a new topic. The weapons’ menacing looks, coupled with the public’s confusion over fully-automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons — anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun — can only increase the chance of public support for restrictions on these weapons.”
-Josh Sugarmann, “Assault Weapons: Analysis, New Research and Legislation”, March 1989
“The NRA is right...handgun controls do little to stop criminals from obtaining handguns.”
-Josh Sugarman, former communications director for the Coalition Against Gun Violence

Looks like a machine gun, menacing, semi-automatic assault weapon (oxy moron statement). Anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun, again another moronic statement. Semi-automatic versus selectable rate of fire changes the classification of the firearm....Come on morons get it right or keep your fly trap closed.
