After the Orlando shooting, the drumbeat of the left to DO SOMETHING NOW has become largely focused on the AR-15. Since the four gun control amendments all failed to pass the Senate (as my fellow Victory Girl Jodi reported), New Hampshire Senator Jeanne Shaheen tried gun shaming AR-15 owners. In her mind, wanting a “weapon of war” means you are a bad, bad person with bad, bad thoughts.
“The fact is, the AR-15, the gun that [Orlando terrorist Omar] Mateen used, that’s a weapon of war,” Ms. Shaheen said.
Mateen actually used a Sig Sauer MCX semi-automatic rifle, similar to the AR-15, to gun down 49 people at Pulse nightclub in Orlando June 12.
Ms. Shaheen claimed that what the AR-15 is “advertised as being able to do, technologically advances…killing people that previous weapons have been unable to do.”
“Somebody who is buying that kind of a weapon isn’t buying it for target shooting,” she said. “They’re not buying it to go out and hunt deer. You don’t need an AK-47 or an AR-15 to hunt deer. They’re buying it to do bad things and we need to recognize that and address it.”
