Across the Potomac from DC,this is one of the wealthiest, smallest counties in the country,where some of the best schools are located, it makes Fairfax and the OC look like shit, and by far the sweetest place to live. In the southern part of the county, many minorities can be found along with sports fields. It also has it own transportation sysytem--the ART busses.Parts of it are getting to look more and more like NYC (rossylyn, ballston)and 95% of kid's parents work in DC, making a shitload of money. Arlington dominates the region in sports especially those PATRIOTS from Yorktown High School. Where small colonial houses are being replaced more and more by those ugly ass mansions which leave even smaller yards to utilize. It's also home to the PENTAGON-which in fact is NOT in DC. It's also where if you're a Republican, you are a tiny minority who has no say in anything and should hightail it to somewhere else in the state besides Northern Virginia.7 out of 10 eligible ppl voted for Kerry or Gore here and where everyone takes DC for granted, but still keeps the 'Skins faith going.
Person A: Oh,so yo'ure a redneck, confederate, illiterate, Republican from VA?
Arlingtonian: No, I'm from Arlington...

A term created for the 1994 "Assault Weapons Ban," which banned firearms based on appearance, brand name, and features not related to firearm function. A proper definition of this word requires the entire 1994 act, so feel free to look it up.
History:
The term "assault weapon" has no industry or military definition. It was created to give a single name to all of the firearms politicians wanted to ban in 1994. Opponents of the 1994 ban refer to it more accurately as the "Semi-Auto" ban.

1. (n.) One who believes that the ultimate good in a political system is to keep government regulation at an absolute minimum, particularly by eliminating laws based on their validity (or lack thereof) within a free society.
2. (n.) A member of the U.S. political party of the same name.
3. (adj.) the state of adhering to the principle of libertarian politics. "This bill is based on libertarian values."
Libertarians contrast with the Republican and Democratic parties because the libertarian belief is that government should be minimized or eliminated in all areas, even those that they don't personally support, while other political parties tend to promote freedom in some issues but government control in others. While the Democratic party believes in freedom for matters of recreational drug use and the Republican party believes in the freedom to own guns, libertarians are typically against regulation for both issues.
Libertarians themselves do not all necessarily share equal standards for personal behavior (though some may be common), as their philosophy is based almost entirely on knowing when something isn't anybody else's business. For example, many do not think recreational drug use is a good idea, but do not want to enact laws making that choice for others.
