I would bet a dollar that every idiot voting yes has no clue what the legal definition of “assault rifle” is.
Yes, but the dims keep adding characteritics to make the scary “assault weapon”. Based on the features, my little .22 cal rifle is an assault weapon. But I have been a law abiding person for nearly 50 years. This is not about gun control, it’s about people control. There are millions of us who own firearms, but do not cause trouble. Well, maybe for a thug who breaks into our house. OH I FORGOT, these are dim constituancies.

That’s a fact. They are clueless dolts who assume that what their handlers (i.e., MSM and pols) told them is factual.
An “assault rifle” is a weapon that is capable of both automatic fire (multiple rounds fired with a single pull of the trigger, similar to how a machine gun operates) and semi-automatic fire (one bullet fired for each pull of the trigger, with gas-powered reloading of the next cartridge), with the transition between the two accomplished by manually moving a switch.
