If I were just making this stuff up, I’d be depressed. As it is, I am… morose.
Apparently the NRA has twisted the AP’s arm sufficiently to get it to rule that calling an AR-15 an “assault rifle” is unfair… to (wait for it!) the ASSAULT RIFLE. WTAF?!
I am not sure why I should / would worry about the “precious fee-fees” of the inanimate object (a gun), or its maker, or its owner.
Were I the AP journalists — I might give primacy to the families of the dead victims — and witnesses — who say they saw an AR-15, a semi-automatic, or fully automatic “weapon of war” used on their children, wives, school teachers, grandparents or neighbors.
It is time to find out how much Hinderaker’s gun lobbyists paid to get this one rammed through.
And while I am all for honest debates, using generally accepted terms… the truth ought to prevail: these rifles are useless for hunting game. They are solely for the taking of human lives, in large numbers, very quickly. Solely.
So just… fuck right off, Hinderaker.
