It sounds like a convenient set up to me..
I can see the headlines now.. "See how easy it is to get an assault rifle! Etc. etc..."
Once I thought about it for 10 seconds, that's what came to mind.. If Schumer isn't talking about this within the next two months, (just because he's not in session right now), I will be surprised...

One more observation.. If the thing is an assault rifle, the legislatures/courts are gonna have to figure out something new to call the crime of hitting somebody with a fist..

Hey, I ordered a generator and got a "book"!  I'm glad the guy that got it was honest because he called and traded for the book.

FAIL!!!

It was interesting how many times I heard "assault rifle" in the news.....

That term is wearing thin, right there along with "clip". I find myself correcting anyone I come across that uses the wrong vernacular.

One young clueless chap from England on a yacht crew today at work, actually thought it was a machine gun/full auto.....

We went and had a "chat" on the dock,.....Poor lad...

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

The whole "assault rifle" thing drives me up a wall.  When ever I hear anyone use that (or 'clip') I just automatically assume complete ignorance and probably lefty loony or sheep.

If I throw a potato at someone, does it become an assault potato?

Bravery and stupidity are often synonymous.  So are cowardice and intelligence.

"We Americans have been a rebellious band of freedom loving vagabonds from the very beginning. Our freedom from the crown and tyranny would not exist had it not been for the gun. That's a tradition we like to hold on to.  The same can't be said for the rest of you 'Subjects of the Queen'."--said to a Canadian friend who just doesn't get it.
