The AR15 is Not an Assault Weapon
By Daniel John Sobieski

When you consider the Oklahoma office worker whose head was hacked off with a knife, the New York cops attacked with an axe, and the Paris assault with a knife, it begins to dawn on one that assault is a behavior and not a weapon. Ever since Cain slew Able, it has been possible to kill people without using an AR15.

I once saw a movie depicting a time and place and place where only police and the military had guns. It was called Schindler’s List. Only the Nazis had guns. One wonders hoe history would have been different had Germany had a Second Amendment and every Stormtrooper knocking on the door at midnight had met a Jew with a gun.

"Assault weapon" is a term fabricated by the gun control lobby in order to scare the public into approving laws that violate their own rights to bear arms, while doing nothing to prevent crime.
"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

... just as the word "racist" is a term fabricated by the left in order to scare others into silence. Funny, though - I see that word used here quite often by folks who should know better.

I read today that the weapon the Orlando shooter used is technically not even an "AR-15", but something else. No matter -- still grist for their mill.
