A stupid, ignorant, and uninformed way of saying entirely safe semi auto rifle. Typically used in liberal/Californian vocabulary or slang.

Basically a scary looking gun that gun grabbers think is too scary for normal people to have.
Wimpy gun grabber: We're not familiar with guns, but these ones LOOK ominous

Anything you can hurt someone with. I can take my shirt off, wrap it around your neck, and choke you with it, that makes it an assault weapon. I could throw a teddy bear at your head really hard, that makes it an assault weapon. I could intentionally give you a paper cut, that makes the paper I used an assault weapon.
Frequently misused to describe semi-automatic weapons.
That's an assault weapon! You shouldn't be allowed to own that!
What, this? An AR-15 only fires one bullet at a time dude.

Term coined by Violence Policy Center head Josh Sugarmann to describe cililian semiautomatic firearms with a military or fearsome appearance, yet no more lethality than lesser weapons. Derived from the term "assault rifle", which means a fully automatic, selective fire rate firearm used my military and police personnel.
"Assault weapons' menacing looks, coupled with the public's confusion over fully-automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons --anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun-- can only increase the chance of public support for restrictions on these weapons."

Nerd assault occurs when an average or mediocre student outperforms a nerd on a particular assignment or exam, and subsequently informs the nerd that he/she was beat with minimal or no effort.
Dick - "Hey Nerd, what you get on that exam?"
Nerd - "91 percent."
Dick - "Wow. Good job. How long you study?"
Nerd - "About 14 hours."
Dick - "Cool. I only studied an hour before the exam and got a 94 percent."
Gary - "Haha Dick. That's some nerd assault."
An amorphous term coined by those who support gun control. Applied to semi-automatic weapons that cosmetically resemble fully automatic firearms.
When gun manufacturers began making these so-called assault weapons without the things that made them look menacing, the gun grabbers cried that a "loophole" was found. Well, duh...they would be the last to see that the changes were cosmetic in nature.
