Semantics

When you begin to use your opponents terms, you've lost the debate.

This is why not a single one of my AR's is an "assault weapon" or "assault rifle".

They're not assault rifles because they aren't select-fire.  They are not assault weapons because that is my opponent's term.

That is why I become pedantic about terminology.

It's why I decided my time was better spent not reading some gun blogs.

Tugging on a penis and calling it a teat will not get you milk.

  1. Yea but tug long enough and youll get something for your trouble. When i first got my ar a guy i work with spent 10 mins telling my that it was an assault rifle and i was going to end up in jail for having it. After the 10 mins i just had to ask how stupid he was because it wasnt one. He told me that the ar stands for assault rifle. He got mad at me when i just started laughing and told he what it means then googled it just ti prove it.
