No, “AR” doesn’t stand for “Assault Rifle,” but was it designed as a military assault rifle to kill people?

A short thread >>> You decide and be #ArmedWithReason

#GunOwnerForGunReform #GunReform #NoRA
1/3: ArmaLite first developed AR-15 in late 40s as a military rifle & sold patent to Colt who developed it into the M16 & ramped up production of semiautomatic version for law enforcement marketed as the AR-15 designed to kill PEOPLE!

2/3: The AR-15 was developed as a military weapon. The AR-15 came first, in 1947 & tested in Vietnam; the M16 a decade later. There are only subtle differences such as semi vs full auto. Bump stock helps with that. Learn more:

3/3: Meanwhile, federal law provides no minimum age for the unlicensed transfer of long rifles and 38 states don’t require background checks for all gun sales. This #GunOwnerForGunReform sees radical ignoramuses like @laurenboebert as the biggest threat to our gun rights.

Ted Cruz flew to Cancún while the people he supposedly represents suffer and die from cold due to continued, systemic Republican incompetence. No signs of Heidi, though. She must be busy managing the fallout in her Texas energy portfolio for Goldman Sachs.

“All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”

@tedcruz @SenTedCruz is just another Republican proving Orwell right. Orwell was meant as a warning, not as a GOP play book. “All animals are equal, but...
Sure #CancunCruz @tedcruz left for vacay while Texans die and millions suffer in unbearable cold due to Republican incompetence, but let us remember that before he asked President Biden for disaster relief, he and fellow Senator @JohnCornyn voted against Hurricane Sandy relief.

@GOP strategist @rickwtyler told @AliVelshi Trump turned the GOP into a party of “cowards” & “eunuchs.”

DISAGREE! Republicans built Trump over 6 decades of courting radicals. He delivered dreams of unqualified judges; billions to the top; and dismantling of a century of progress

1/12 Allow me to share a little story on this anniversary of the #TiananmenSquareMassacre. While in grad school @ElliottSchoolGW, I organized students to protest the crackdown at Tiananmen. I called every university and as many student organizations as I could find in the DC area ‪1/15 Allow me to share a little story on this anniversary of the #TiananmenSquareMassacre.

2/12 I soon started getting calls in Asian accents saying “we are watching you.” This was before social media; I expected a few hundred to show, but thousands came. We shut down the streets leading to the Chinese Embassy and spent three days in the little park in front. ‪2/15 I soon started getting calls in Asian accents saying “we are watching you.” This was before social media; I expected a few hundred to show, but thousands came.

3/12 We built an unworthy replica of the statue of freedom like the students had built at Tiananmen, but out of random styrofoam pieces. We could see all the curtains had been pulled shut at the embassy, but every now and then, they would open as they took pictures of us. ‪3/15 We built an unworthy replica of the statue of freedom like the students had built at Tiananmen, but out of random styrofoam pieces.

1) As the US nears 300,000 cases & surpasses 7000 deaths, I offer a chronological thread on Trump's lies & inaction on #coronavirus from January 22 to March 10 - the day before the WHO declared the #COVID19 outbreak a pandemic. The Trump #kakistocracy kills

So, Marco Rubio defended Trump’s extortion on China, saying he “didn’t think it was a real request," and Trump “did it to gig” and “provoke” the media.

He once called Trump “unfit” and a “con artist.” Here’s a little thread about the great opportunist and hypocrite #MarcoRubio
Hi. My name is Marco Antonio Rubio. I claimed my parents came to the US fleeing a brutal Castro regime in 1959. I used that story for political gain. Reality? My parents came in 1956 seeking a better life. Now, I work to ensure others cannot do the same.
@marcorubio
Hi. My name is Marco Antonio Rubio. At a CNN Town Hall, I told Parkland families I “absolutely believe” if you are 18 you should not be able to buy a rifle.” I also introduced a bill in 2015 and 2017 to overturn Washington, DC’s age restrictions on gun purchases.
