The Gun control lobby tastes the "Bitterness" of the Supreme Court.

You know, those scary-looking ones, with the thingies...

Duh.

B-b-but those dont have barrel shrouds, which is a required assault rifle feature.

What's a barrel shroud you ask? Per Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY), a barrel shroud is "that shoulder thing that goes up."

I hate the phrase "assault weapon" if we're talking about rifles designed for civilian ownership.

"Assault weapon" is a misleading phrase used by the gun control lobby to demonize any centerfire, semiautomatic (not select-fire as the Wiki link says) rifle that has various aesthetic features that have no bearing on the rifles lethality or efficacy: Collapsible stock, "conspicuously-protruding" $0.99 plastic pistol grip, detachable magazine, barrel shroud (LOL), barrel threads, bayonet lugs (BTW when was the last time you guys ever heard of a drive-by bayonetting?), etc. etc. etc. It's a phrase used by the Bradies to pull on the heart strings of overweight, idiot soccer moms who get their news from Oprah and the National Enquirer.

"If gun laws in fact worked, the sponsors of this type of legislation should have no difficulty drawing upon long lists of examples of crime rates reduced by such legislation. That they cannot do so after a century and a half of trying that they must sweep under the rug the southern attempts at gun control in the 1870-1910 period, the northeastern attempts in the 1920-1939 period, and the attempts at both Federal and State levels in 1965-1976 - establishes the repeated, complete, and inevitable failure of gun laws to control crime." -- Senator Orrin G. Hatch (R-Utah) quoted from "The Right to Keep and Bear Arms, Report of the Senate Subcommittee on the Constitution, Washington: U.S. Government Printing Office, February 1982, p. vii."
