Rev. Jesse Jackson doesn't want to ban 'guns for hunting,' just 'semi automatic weapons'

Could we have just one day — just one — without astounding ignorance muddying the “national conversation” about guns? The answer, of course, is “no.”

Rev. Jesse Jackson insists gun-grabbers aren’t coming for hunting guns, just “semi automatic weapons.” Really? There’s not any overlap there, genius?

Hope to hunt in Alaska some day [bucket list]. If a bigass blk bear came after me, I'd like a semi-auto assault rifle for protection. #p2

Semi-automatic weapons also come in pretty handy for self-defense, not that that makes any difference to anti-gun zealots. Now the Second Amendment is all about hunting?

RIP, honest debate.
