Means it's smaller than a heavy machine gun, portable and more like an automatic pistol with longer barrel.

I came across this idyllic scene from small town America. It shows with all clarity why guns are necessary to deal with errm, illegal Mexican immigration for instance.

They shoot Kiwis, don't they?

One Man Against The Pigs
(And Rabbits)
Based on a true life story
I'd watch that.The more killings there, the better the gun biz gets:
But many people say the incident may also lead to greater gun sales. Leane Anderson, a firearms instructor and gun shop owner, said purchases had soared since the killings.
"I think guns don't kill people, people kill people," she said. "I'm a strong believer in being able to protect yourself and your family."

Yeah... in the US, you can call yourself Quentin without getting your butt fried Crisp. You know why? Because people know you pack. You pack heat. Serious heat. Not the sort of lukewarm, damp stuff you find on your colleague's chair in the office you mistakenly sat on. Cool heat. Guns.
We're all hypocrites really. All we want is extreme Tarantinoesque ultraviolence with guns, nuns and wiggling taser stuns. In the US, they have a legal right to all of that.
Hmm. Must stop taking my afternoon espresso intravenously.

Number one key point: that story is from 2001, the information from a single source is based on data older than that, and selectively picked to advocate a case.
I fail to see how being armed protects me as I'm walking down the street, minding my own business, and someone comes up and shoots me with his or her concealed weapon. Maybe I should always be vigilant and prepared to draw my gun in case anyone does something suspicious?
What's apparent though is that the gun advocates are more keen on spreading fear than working on reducing crime. This can't be done, because then all those heroic gunbattles between villains and the armed citizenry would never take place...

The idea here is that you know any kind of conflict or altercation is likely to result in firearms being used. Because people fear death and injury as caused by firearms, this reduces the risk of conflict.
Wonderfully microcephalic reasoning that.

Following the "logic" here, airline passengers should be issued with a gun on boarding planes. Clearly, that would've prevented September 11...
