The AR-15 is BY DEFINITION an assault weapon as of today.
Merriam Webster has changed the definition of an assault weapon to:
>noun: any of various intermediate-range, magazine-fed military rifles (such as the AK-47) that can be set for automatic or semiautomatic fire; also : a rifle that resembles a military assault rifle but is designed to allow only semiautomatic fire
>>also : a rifle that resembles a military assault rifle but is designed to allow only semiautomatic fire
>>>a rifle that resembles a military assault rifle
Yeah. Im so bent over I may go clean my AR and AK in a pure rage!

fucking lol. Liberals never cease to amaze me.
Dictionary definitions are not, and never have been, the legislative or legal source of truth for the wording of law.
Furthermore, dictionary definitions are not, and never have been, the accepted standard for anything technical or engineering related. Anyone in a tech or engineering field knows this... so I guess that excludes most libs.
This is probably a good thing though; in the end it will just result in further collapse of the democratic party. The emotional snowflakes will demand their elected reps adhere to retarded shit like this, and of course they simply won't be able to because congressional procedure doesn't give a fuck what a few dictionary editors decide what the new truth is.
Do libtards even know that it is illegal in all states to hunt a 100lb deer with an ar-15 because the bullet is too small? I bet they didn't.

Ok, so now its exactly defined what it is. They could shorten it to looks scary.
Not really seeing the problem here other than morons who are already on board with "muh salt weppins" will now harp about how their misinformed propaganda made it into a dictionary.
Leo Green
Legal in Wyoming.
Nathaniel Williams
Not all states, user. As for the list where it is, in IN it is illegal to hunt with a .223 weapon.
Justin Gonzalez
No, but .223 is still a .22 caliber round
Jeremiah Reyes
Underated

>a rifle that resembles a military assault rifle but is designed to allow only semiautomatic fire Great. Now airsoft rifles are assault rifles. Because as we all know we base legal definitions of some old faggot named "Merriam".

significance of the dude in the pic?
Bentley Powell
Cool now let's redefine merriam webster to mean massive nigger faggot

What about cartridges such as the 30.06 or 308? Are they "assault weapon" and what do you think we should do about them?
>first definition completely disqualifies ar-15 as an assault rifle >*note: ar-15 is also an assault rifle And the left still tries to pretend they are the underdogs.
Ah, sorry about that, I thought you were OP (you both share the same collar ID). I am just still surprised that someone has not tried to use a 308 for a big shooting yet given a shot at center mass is almost certain to be fatal on a human target.

Heh, my brother has an AR-15 and I shot it and it was a lot quieter and easier to handle than I thought it would be. Up until then I had only shot pistols.
Webster's "interpretation" will never fly in a legal setting since the term has already been defined by the supreme court as per the Federal Assault Weapons Ban (AWB) of 1994.
