Is that why you own one?But, the AR-15 LOOKS scary--AND it's BLACK That makes it "assault rifle."Assault rifle: A fully automatic military rifle.Mass shooting in hospital where the shooter used an assault type rifle.
But hey, if only doctors were armed.
Doctor shot victims with: A semi-automatic rifle, not an assault rifle.
Of course, if you wish to describe the weapon as an assault rifle simply because he "assaulted" the victims with it, then you are obligated to identify all other devices used to harm people as, say: assault hammer, assault knife, assault screwdriver, assault shoe, assault rock and of course, the ever favorite....assault fist.
Example: "There was a fight at the local bar and one of the drunk assailants used his "assault fist" to cause bodily harm to the other drunk individual and the blow to the side of the victim's head caused enough trauma to cause his death."
