Mr.P the big game hunter is playing code word games. He knows the difference between the stuff the military uses and what they call but ain’t “assault rifles”.

Not one word does he or his boss offer about addressing the hundreds of gangland murders and shootings using illegaly obtained mostly handguns and revolvers

.The guns Obama is talking about are legal to purchase anywhere single bullet per trigger pull semi automatic rifles. They are used for some small game hunting but mostly for target practice. Those that are made to look like their military counterpart are being called (code word) by the demo-coms an “ Assault rifle”.

Assault rifles (ARs) since Viet Nam and a DOD decision fire a less than 30 caliber sized bullet. That 30 caliber size was used in WWII and Korea which quickly kills and such semi-automatics are permitted in many states for bigger game hunting. Todays ARs are designed to wound not necessarilly kill which is why they are automatic using many rounds. They rapidfire many rounds from a magazine or drum once the trigger is in the pulled position..

Conservatives and supporters of the 2nd amendment the Obama regime is using the 2nd amendment argument to blame gun owners for its inability to deal with the hundreds of gangland murders and shootings commited in areas under their solid control using illegally obtained firearms.

Their solution to those inner city problems is to remove those rights provided by the constitution to have and bear arms from all US citizens, ..dust their hands and run to the mainline socialist media and exclaim another problem solved.

“But for the life of me, I don’t know why the hell people have to have an assault weapon.”
Probably because of either the astounding ignorance of public officials or because our government has been taken over by G*D* commies.

Lol!!! I love it! Perfect answer. This is EXACTLY how I feel!!!

Was that some kind of commemoration for Benito Mussolini? Time, place, content of speech, individuals speaking, perhaps?

“I mean who the hell needs armor-piercing bullets except you guys in battle?”

“I’ve been duck hunting since I was 10-years-old. I love to hunt and I love to be able to share that joy with my kids. But for the life of me, I don’t know why the hell people have to have an assault weapon.”

Because you're a booger eating moron, Leon, a booger eating moron. You might try concentrating on just one subject at a time, because you're obviously confused... I don't recall there being reports of AP bullets being fired.

I’d say that banning these guns and limiting magazines negates the possibility of an effective guerrilla was against a corrupt federal govt that turns its guns on the People.

People Don’t ‘Need’ Assault Rifles

People don't 'need' food stamps either. Or public housing. Or mandatory insurance. Or abortion. Or gas taxes. Or . . .
