The things the media and others refer to as an assault weapon is a very specialized device. No it isn't. Its just a military looking semi-auto weapon. We need to visit the whole idea of a semi-automatic rifle in civilian hands. No good reason to do so. More people are murdered by people's natural weapons (beaten to death or pushed to death, even more if you include chocking which is broken out in to a separate category), then with all types of rifles combined; also more people are murdered with blunt objects than rifles.
