Petition to declare the AR-15 Awesome

Created by D.C. on June 15, 2016

Guns in America is a complicated issue for many reasons. However, the AR-15 is really cool and in no way statistically deadlier than any other semi-automatic rifle.

It will have symbolic weight while also making one small step kind of nowhere towards dealing with this epidemic.
