In reply to the discussion: The NRA advocates for 10 year olds to own assault rifles. End the NRA. [View all]krispos42
(49,445 posts)37. So.... why haven't you fixed your OP?
        DU allows editing.  Why do you let blatant misinformation to stand with your name and thus reputation?
And it's a good question, too.  After all, you, personally, want to have all semi-automatics declared "assault weapons" and banned.
So you're back on the spot.  Even assuming that only "some" semi-automatics are assault weapons and need to be banned, explain to this 10-year-old that putting an ergonomic, comfortable pistol grip on her kid-sized gun turns it into an illegal arm.
You do realize that you've been trying to outlaw common-sense ideas and development for 30 years, right?
Ha!  Who am I kidding?
