The Democrats who want to disarm you know nothing about guns

“I held an AR-15 in my hand, I wish I hadn’t. It is as heavy as 10 boxes that you might be moving. And the bullet that is utilized, a .50 caliber, these kinds of bullets need to be licensed and do not need to be on the street.” - Rep. @JacksonLeeTX18 pic.twitter.com/U71ir6BHZH

An AR-15 weighs 8 lbs so either Jackson Lee is used to very small moving boxes or she's lying.

Also the AR-15 fires .223 caliber ammo like many other civilian weapons.   A 50 caliber round is 1/2 of an inch in diameter and weighs 1.7 ounces.  A .223 round is .223 inches in diameter and weighs 0.4 ounces.

Here's a picture that shows you the huge size difference between a .223 round and a 50 caliber round:

This is all part of the Democrats big lie that a civilian hunting rifle, the AR-15, is a weapon of war.  No soldier would go into combat with a semi automatic rifle like the AR-15.  But since the AR-15 looks like the M-16, which is a military weapon that fires fully automatically, Democrats are trying to demonize it.

Their objective is simple; they want to disarm we the people so that if we object to the Democrats totalitarian plans we, like the people of Hong Kong, won't be able to defend ourselves.
