The o.p. does not know what the difference is between an "assault rifle" (full auto military) and an "assault weapon" (political speak for "scary gun").
Civilian versions of the military rifle are semi-auto, not automatic weapons.

This shouldn't be a sensation nor something done for "attention". The fact that it is demonstrates just how far off we have gone off track concerning the Second Amendment and common sense.

I blame liberals.

A lot of the mass murderers that I recall that used an assault weapon, dressed in armor with face coverings, many of them may have passed as a swat officer.

They were not holding them in a fashion that suggested they are going to shoot.

At what point should you be concerned? The same point when a thug pulls his. When its in their hands being waved around, pointed, or shot.

So many people get scared at the sight of a gun. Think how many people you pass every day that have one concealed. It will be a lot more than you think. But, its not scary because you cant see it, right.

Mass murders are sooooo stinkin rare. You gun grabbers say us gun owners are paranoid because we want to protect ourselves, but heck, y'all are so paranoid, you want to strip us of ours as a whole to give you a false sense of security.

.

To look back in history, some of which is not too long ago, true mass murders most often were done by government or sanctioned by government . Even the U.S.A has instances of a bad spot in history on this, just about every nation or government that ever existed has a dark past of some sort.

I don't know of any mass murders that used assault weapons since the 1930's or so, would you care to provide links to the cases you are speaking of?

Two men seen walking down a Portland street armed with assault rifles told police they were exercising their Second Amendment rights and hoping to educate the public on gun rights.
Several calls were made to 911 on Wednesday afternoon, with alarmed residents reporting two men with guns strapped to their backs walking through the area of Southeast Seventh Avenue and Spokane Street in Portland's Sellwood neighborhood.
When police arrived on the scene, they found two 22-year-old men carrying rifles openly on their backs. The two were also holding valid concealed handgun licenses in Oregon, according to Fox affiliate KPTV.
The men reportedly told officers that they were seeking to educate onlookers about their Second Amendment rights.

LOL, i dont think these idiots really know what they are doing. I mean, come on, what is the point of displaying these assault rifles?
Nothing but attention whores.
Amazing and the "guns" did not shoot anyone.
