VB please explain my political ideals, and I will embarrass you.
That's a promise. :)

it's not parsing words. there is a gigantic difference between semi and auto.
our government seems to think so, which is why automatic weapons are heavily regulated.

Don Lemon isn't really a liberal, and there is only one "m" in his name people.

saying that the difference doesn't matter is of course the point of liberals to try and lie to the general public who are ignorant as well as a whole on guns.

No offense but there's nothing intelligent about your post.

not hard to figure out, given his employer.
I'm sure he'd appreciate you handing it out on TD.com though.
I'll send him this thread. He'll find it amusing.

he seemed to revel in his own ignorance last night, so I'm sure he will be amused again. That tends to be the hallmark of idiots. They enjoy being ignorant to facts and spouting off on things they know not about.

Yep. The only synonym for automatic weapon that I can think of is machine gun. If someone quibbled over using those two phrases interchangeably, I would accuse them of parsing.

I'd love for VB to tell us who said this or when, because I believe this to be completely fabricated. If anybody posted that on this board they'd get ripped a new one. In fact, I can't possibly imagine a situation where someone would say that. He's not even a good falsehood peddling activist.

For the purposes of this discussion, I'd agree with you. However, with a small arms specific discussion, there is a significant distinction - but the NFA and other federal firearms legislation use them interchangably (and this causes a slight problem when we deviate from that context).

The difference between assault rifle, assault weapon and semiautomatic weapon is just semantics, as you say. But as soon as you introduce the word "automatic" to the discussion, you're no longer debating semantics from a legal standpoint, and legality is the point of this debate.
EDIT: The reason that folks get upset when people try to blur the line between automatic weapons and semiautomic weapons is because in the U.S., automatic weapons are already as hard to get as semiautomatic weapons are in Japan, and no one's trying to make them easier to get.

Trackfan really nailed it there, major props.
Vegas confusing the assault rifle/assault weapon debate with the term automatic weapon debate is exactly the problem
because politicians (see numerous examples) are just as ignorant and they actually have the power to impose laws and restrictions. it's not even that difficult of a subject to understand if you took 15-20 minutes to educate yourself

Why is it that the gun control pushers always don't know shite about guns and how they work?

Well, they still have a problem with other liberals liking guns as evidenced by two Colorado state reps being recalled by their districts which are full of flaming left wing and obama loving liberals for gun grabbing legislation.
And, They're still butthurt as hell after watching Obama bitching in the rose garden about gun control still failing after newtown.

Would you accuse someone differentiating between an SUV and a semi of parsing?
Are these the same?

My guess is about the same time that conservatives let abortion go.
