Curmudgeon:

Which is it? Is it about protesters shooting policemen or is about regular type flyover American people having 'military style assault rifles? And what is a military style assault rifle, an M-1 Garand, an M-1 carbine, an M-1A with a 10 round magazine, a .303 Enfield with a 10 round integral magazine, a Ruger 10-22 with 25 round magazine or what? Any of those properly handled in the right situation is a quite deadly weapon.

When you are walking through a forest you had better be looking at the trees otherwise you will bump into one.
