Yeah, in my experience it's the left who're more open to shutting down speech they don't like. They would say, "yeah, but you're banning books", but seriously, the books are being banned in school libraries, and the books in question are sexual in nature, or contain revisionist racist language; neither belong in schools.

>as·sault ri·fle noun a rapid-fire, magazine-fed automatic rifle designed for infantry use. From Google \^\^\^ An AR-15 is not an assault rifle (also AR doesn't stand for assault rifle), it's a poorly made semi-automatic rifle replica with stripped down features of an actual assault rifle the M-16, which is largely a piece of junk itself. I'd say the only thing that makes it more dangerous than other semi-automatic rifles is that it can have a higher capacity magazine than others, out of the box. But you can modify basically any semi-auto rifle to do the same. If these people had any sense they would be using AK-47's, or even an SKS, but they saw too many war movies and Call of Duty and thought it was the best tool. The AR-15 and M16 jam so often they have a huge button you're meant to beat on to push the bolt forward in case it doesn't seat right. In basic they had this long class on how to recover from jams, and it happened often. In Iraq our weapons barely fired because if you get dust or if the rifle doesn't have a lot of oil in it, it was bind and no longer fire.

This is exactly right. It's an activist sub. Basically when you want to make a comment there imagine you're talking to an Antifa activist, would they agree with you? No, then post at your peril. Yes? It's dicey but probably will be ok.

From what I can tell that subreddit is a cesspool full of deranged people. It's kind of like some of these other subreddits that will ban you for even commenting on a subreddit they don't like. You weren't going to make any progress there anyway, they're too far gone in most cases.
