Ah, so indeed it was more than just a link. An emphasis on armor and weapon, curiously, despite that already being mentioned by the original user. Interesting.

Tell me, how does it "speak volumes?" when I'm merely providing obvious context and correcting misconceptions?

Because that was the persons comment I linked to was regarding the weapons and armor.

I'm sorry you don't like what the wiki says and you apparently feel the need to read more into an article and a direct quote of statements from the article. Maybe you could try linking documents you approve of that answers a persons question in the future?

My apologies if I misunderstood. There are just a lot of gun nuts out there who would twist the two points you coincidentally highlighted in order to claim that regulation of these things is pointless when that simply is not the case (especially when "home made" is a half truth). Since you clearly agree, then again, my apologies.
