I
am a soldier I earned that right by wearing the uniform for 23 years. I carried the M-16 in combat and have no desire to own a look alike M-16. While I think the AR-15 is nothing more than a toy and not good for much else but target shooting I still defend one's right to own one. If the AR-15 were a fully automatic weapon it would be restricted under the National Firearms Act of 1934 and subsequent laws.

I was also a soldier
for the shortest time that I was allowed to be and still get an honorable discharge.
I'd forget about it if I could,
will never understand those who wouldn't,
and I'm also more familiar than I ever wanted to be with the ugly as shit M-16.
My own, not the government's, auto-loading rifle has a non-detachable top magazine that hold four rounds.
I could easily shoot you through my door if you were trying to break in,
but I couldn't take out half a Taylor Swift concert by myself before getting taken down.
I understand that it's hard to distinguish one rifle from the other in legal language.
I also know that Americans shoot up schools practically once a week,
and the entire world knows that many if not most of us
obviously don't give a fat flying fuck if it means giving up our right to own para-military weapons.
We disgust the entire fucking world,
and our provincial, xenophobic, NRA-loving, brain-dead goobers
don't care.
But we do have our play-soldier guns, after all.
I will be honest.
I honestly don't give a fuck about my nor your Second Amendment rights as said amendment is written.
Whatever that makes me, that's what I am.
