Because they’re called “assault weapons,” they’ve got to be scary and bad, right?

Gun control nuts have managed to get the term into America’s lexicon without actually having to define it. And without defining it, naïve leftists are forced to come up with their own definitions – and they’re awesome.

took to the campus of George Washington University to find out what millennials think of the “assault weapons ban” and what exactly as “assault weapon” is.

Most of the young people he interviewed were gleefully in favor of banning assault weapons, though they were stumped when asked exactly what that would entail.

One student said “Anything above what a shotgun would be … is just not necessary,” clearly unable to explain what was “above” a shotgun.

Many of them pulled out leftist talking points and phrases like “military style” and “high capacity” from their craniums, others were just … well, lost. Have a look:

“I think a lot of people don’t know how to control their use of guns,” one student said, which is sadly true, but has nothing to do with an assault weapons ban.

“Anything that would not be common use in a rifle setting,” another student said.

Many students were focused on the idea of “automatic weapons,” which have been banned for more than a century.

An assault weapon is: “any automatic weapon that can cause brutal harm to a bunch of people.”

Here’s a good one: “An assault weapon is … isn’t it when a person gets a gun with an intention of like, using it for bad things, or like, you can, like kill someone with the weapon?”

A vegetarian student chimed in:

“If you’re using it to hunt, then it doesn’t make sense … like an automatic gun, if you’re shooting a … I don’t know, a deer, I don’t hunt, I’m actually a vegetarian but it’s not really like an efficient way to kill a deer, you’re pretty much just making ground beef at that point.”

Many of them tried to suggest that it was merely an appearance, like “rings around the barrel,” and “the trigger might me larger” (which is just an awesome response). There was talk about the gun being “made out of a different material, like something black.”

Another tried to define an “assault weapon” as something that can hurt or kill someone. When Brown asked if – by that definition – a rock is an assault weapon, she at first rejected the idea, but finally came around. A rock is and assault weapon, “I guess.”

Students at these colleges are fed a diet of leftist gobbledygook until it’s oozing out their ears. I’d love someone to ask them if they’d be in favor of banning “Assault Geraniums.”
