Democrats do un-American activities.

The worst is their attempt to deprive us our constitutional right to own and bear arms. Yes, the Second Amendment to the Constitution guarantees an American citizen the right to own and bear arms. This right can be only denied to felons. Yet, the Democrats try to undermine this right. We are constantly subjected to a barrage of "gun control" propaganda aimed at depriving us of this right.

 

The latest shameful effort is the sit in by the Dems. Even some people I know question the right to own "assault weapons." By assault weapons they mean a rifle with collapsible stock, a pistol grip and the heat dissipating metal over the barrel and a clip that contains various number of bullets.  

 

Let's get some facts straight:

 

1. There are basically three types of weapons:

 

a) single action firearms that fire one bullet per one trigger pull. The trigger has to be activated by a physical action.

b) semi-automatic firearms where the discharges gas is used to eject the spent cartridge and put in the next cartridge into firing position - one bullet fired per one trigger pull;

c) automatic - works like b) but the cartridge is inserted into firing position continuously. In an automatic, one trigger pull will fire bullets as long as the trigger is being depressed.

 

Manufacturers discovered that the look of the AR-15 sells, so many semi automatic rifles have those looks. THEY ARE NOT ASSAULT WEAPONS. Only those rifles that are fully automatic can be considered "assault weapons."

 

Real assault weapons are illegal to own without a special license.

 

There are toy guns (air rifles) that look like the AR-15.

These are illegal in NY State.

 

 

This is the Colt AR-15. It does not have the collapsible stock and the heat dissipating part.

 

 

 Above are two toy guns available for decades now. They both have magazines and the one on the bottom has the collapsible stock, a pistol grip and the forward grip.

 

 

The last weapon is a SIG SAUER MCX like the one used by the Florida jihadi to kill 49 people. It is no more lethal than other AR-15s. The high casualty number was due to the fact that the jihadi had no armed opposition (it was a gun free zone) and participants could not use another entrance.

 

Weapons do not kill by themselves. It takes a jihadi to pull the trigger.
