Maj. Gen. Abdelaziz Jassim Al-Shalal, the Syrian military police chief, has defected to the rebels/opposition forces. In a video statement, he said:
“The army has destroyed cities and villages and has committed massacres against an unarmed population that took to the streets to demand freedom. Long live free Syria.”

But there’s no practical use for an assault weapon in modern times. If you think the U.S. government wouldn’t do this then you’re kidding yourself.

Syrian rebels have lower-grade weapons than most average Americans have in their gun safes, yet they’ve been able to neutralize and are on the brink of overthrowing a nation’s military, even when it’s backed by the Russians.
US President Barack Obama supports a proposal from Senator Diane Feinstein (D-California) that would reinstate a ban on the sale of assault weapons in the United States.
Not a surprise.
Obama supports banning assault weapon sales to American Citizens. Obama does not oppose banning assault weapon sales to Mexican Drug Cartels.
Thanks a lot, American voters.
I just realized I made a GIANT grammatical error here. Fuck guys, sorry. I failed you.
Fixed: Obama supports banning assault weapon sales to American Citizens. Obama does not support banning assault weapon sales to Mexican Drug Cartels.
Thanks a lot, American voters.

I’m still waiting for an actual definition from the media on what an “assault weapon” is.
Oh wait, I forgot it was just politically charged rhetoric used in an attempt to demonize firearms to the public.
Any weapon used to assault & pepper people. Duh.
