from owning any gun because they are not responsible, or even sane, enough to be walking around with a gun.

I don't have to know the caliber of the dang thing to know it has no use but to make some gun cultist get excited and drool. It is marketed to appeal to gunners' baser instincts and should be used as a decoy to attract folks to put on the no guns list.

Gun cultist always tell us the AR15s are necessary to hunt deer. Of course, they tell themselves a bunch of crud to justify adding another lethal weapon to their home arsenal, and public carry rotation.
