We’re pretty sure that Slate’s Matt Yglesias is just kidding around when he asks if a tactical flashlight can be used to kill people. Still, he’s been confused before. Besides, what if he’s right? If there can be assault magazines, why not assault flashlights?

@mattyglesias "Tactical" means used in specific way by trained users. If they wanted to kill people, they'd issue #Obamacare flashlights.

@mattyglesias If the flashlight has the optional "assault grip" it clearly becomes a lethal weapon.
