“Assault weapons” are a meaningless term referring to semi-automatic rifles with certain cosmetic features. Said rifles represent the large majority of long rifles sold on the US market. AR-pattern rifles are regularly used for hunting, pest control, home defense, competition, casual shooting, etc. - are are damn good

Hmmm, doesn’t appear nearly as annoying as I thought it would be.

I swear John Force has had more violent near-death experiences than Batman.

My dad got into an impromptu drag race with one of these while I was a kid. We were in his 3-series, and the Ferrari owner wanted to run, so we gave it a shot.

Don’t worry, I’m not writing this from a militia safe house in the woods:). There’s no reason for armed resistance against the US gov’t, and anyone who thinks so is probably nut. The only time I would go there is if it shredded the Constitution (though mass forced disarmament could be interpreted as doing that).

A couple open carry idiots =/= majority of gun owners, or even NRA members.

Arms are a hedge against government tyranny. Almost every tyrannical government has confiscated its’ citizens arms early in the process, because they knew totalitarianism was impossible with a population capable of armed resistance.

...in favor of Super PACs pooled together by wealthy liberals, many of whom have commercial interests that would benefit from Dems in office.

Those numbers tend to spike in favor of gun control immediately after a shooting, then regress toward a more even split. Americans are significantly more pro-gun rights than they were in 1994 when the Assault Weapons Ban was passed (80% were in favor of it then)...and Bill Clinton credited the Dems’ congressional

Was about to write a decent response, but your pathetic juvenile insult convinced me it’s a waste of time.

Correct - it was originally designed as a military infantry rifle.

I survived a school shooting back in the 2000s, so I totally understand their pain. I don’t doubt their sincerity either.

Doubt it. The NRA is effective because a great many of gun owners agree with its stances, not because it has mountains of cash. Assault weapons bans sit at roughly 50-50 in the polls, and this is right after a mass shooting. Many Americans just don’t buy into gun control arguments.

Guns have many legitimate, legal uses, and the vast majority of people use them responsible. Gun grabbers’ delusions notwithstanding, gunmakers do not advertise their products as means of murder and mayhem. Source: long-time gun enthusiast who has seen thousands of gun ads.

Relax, it was a joke. Dry humor doesn’t always work on the interwebz

In before someone asking how well it can maim bystanders at Cars and Coffee.

Meh. Smells like a shakedown job, like just most of these stunts are. The diversity industry should be recognized for what it is - a lucrative business. Plenty of consultants out there are cashing fat checks by making white guys in the C-suite feel guilty about their “white privilege”, then telling them to solve it by

A psychotic off-road Cayenne would be the first Porsche SUV I’d actually care about.

Hopefully this thing still has camo on it, because that rear end is AWFUL:(
