Anything. Although pigs and coyote are probably the most popular.

Seems like more gun...and really more to the issue...more bullets at one's fingertips than an experienced rifle person might need to get the job done.

We certainly see the damage it can cause in a school.

Happy Hunting I guess.

What that says is the FBI didn't have the tools to do anything about it. Lets give them the tools.

I don't buy the lacking the proper tools argument. I believe if the FBI would have searched diligently for anyone named Nikolas Cruz they could have found a high school kid in Florida. This is 2018 not 1998.

You don't think an AR-15 is an assault rifle? I mean, that's what I'm talking about.

The term assault rifle has been co-opted from the original intended meaning by the gun control crowd as well as the media to describe any number of weapons in existence today.

Basically, it sounds way more scary when you call an auto loading rifle an "assault" rifle than just calling it a "semi-automatic rifle" like it truly is. Or pull in the next common term "weapon of war."

The thing is, as far as rifles go it’s near the bottom as far as power. There are way more powerful rifles that could do much more damage, but the media likes to push the propaganda against AR-15’s.

And, I’ll give you a quick education on its design. It was designed to wound, not kill. The ammo that was specially designed and that platform for the AR-15 doesn’t work like other rifles. The concept was that a wounded enemy was a bigger battlefield hinderance than a dead one because the wounded enemy would require someone to care for them.

Not entirely accurate. An old urban legend of the "wound rather than kill" theory.
