Have to lie or mislead to get what they want
If the bill passes, it will be legal in the District of Columbia:
* For teenagers and adults to openly carry a loaded semiautomatic rifle, including an AK-47 semiautomatic assault rifle, on city streets without a permit [H.R. 3193, sections 7-8, repealing D.C. Code sections 7-2502.02, 7-2502.03, 7-2507.02]
Perusing the code, there is no mention of semiautomatic assault rifles. It seems to me that DC would, like most of the rest of the country, allow minors to own weapons provided that their parents bought them for them. There was no mention that I found in the three laws that specified someone could carry and AK-47 down the street.
They also go through some other ridiculous points (that are comparable to gun laws in most states, I might add) and they include the phrase semiautomatic assault weapons in each one of them. More hysteria from the anti-gunners.
