I don’t feel like more of a man. I bought and love AK47’s for the history of the gun, how they work, and what they represent. It gets everyone’s panties in a bunch when you say you own AK47’s and you’re not a convicted felon with an LA gang association.

You’re right, I don’t know what an “assault weapon” can do first hand. I don’t care to find out because I don’t intend to use it for that purpose. If you signed up to be in the military you accepted that fact from day one that you have a good chance of seeing life and limb lost.

I suppose the 2,000 assault weapons put into the black market by our own US government under operation Fast and Furious means nothing either? Or do we look the other way because our own ATF can’t responsibly keep track of weapons? Was it worth that border patrol agents life?
