Should we ban assault rifles? But what exactly is an assault rifle? Is it any gun that looks like a military weapon?
Point of clarity...

"Assault rifles" are real, and ownership by civilians is already banned - well, they're partially restricted, anyway - by law. They are fully-automatic, military-only (with two exceptions), and have a very specific definition that the military carefully documents. But "assault weapons," on the other hand, do not exist. That's a nebulous (completely without definition) and fictitious term. Several years ago, a Democrat anti-gun politician pulled it out of thin air - or his anal orifice - for the sole public-relations purpose of scaring people with little/no actual knowledge of firearms.

Responsible members of the firearms community should be very careful with those two terms, and never use them interchangeably.
