Yesterday, Donald Trump was the target of what the FBI said “appears to be an attempted assassination” while golfing in West Palm Beach, FL. Secret Service agents noticed the muzzle of an AK-style rifle sticking through the shrubbery while stationed a few holes from where Trump was.
In July, a would-be assassin fired an AR-15 at Trump at a PA rally, killing a spectator and injuring seven others. Guns, including the AK-47 and AR-15, were once banned in the U.S. with the Assault Weapons Ban. By 2008, AR-15s represented one out of every ten guns manufactured in the country.
