I have often wondered the Democratic fixation with bayonet lugs. I have been a police officer for almost 40 years and I have never heard of anyone stabbed with a bayonet on the end of a rifle. I believe that I have been to over 150 murder scenes and probably 10 times that many serious injury assaults or assaults with a deadly weapon. I have never heard a bayonet on the end of a rifle even mentioned, much less used. Yet, The US Congress (left side of the aisle) brings that up into laws as if that would somehow make any difference in anything. Not a single murder will be stopped or has been stopped by passing a law about a bayonet lug yet it was in the previous assault weapons ban and has been continually pushed since it expired (the same with barrel shrouds and other features).

I can come to only two conclusions. One is they have absolutely no idea what they are talking about, which somehow does not seem strange to me. The other is that they know it is complete nonsense but they are trying to find any reason in an attempt to justify their beliefs, which somehow does not seem strange to me.

We all should know that the dreaded “assault rifle” that seems to occupy their time, only accounts for about 2% of the homicides each year in this country. That means they are not very occupied with the other 98% or like above, they know it is complete nonsense but it is the means to an end. Either way it is false… Which is a nice way of saying, it is a lie.

Want real comedy? Watch some of the many YouTube videos of Democratic politicians talking about guns.

I would say both of your conclusions are true.

Those videos are surely going to be removed soon.  Cancel culture!

tvc’s post on bayonets reminds me of my bayonet training during boot camp at Ft. Polk in ‘65.   S/Sgt Lee was the instructor.   His words:

Personally I think this training is a waste of time.   Why?   Because 3 things have to happen before you’ll ever use it.   First, you’ll have to be out of ammunition.   Second, your enemy will have to be out of ammunition.  And third, both of you will have to have guts enough to bayonet fight.   

Funny the things you remember.  😄
