and what you think they mean, as opposed to what others think the same term actually means.
"Assault weapons" are semi automatic firearms, with certain combinations of cosmetic features. This was defined in law, in 1994!
"Assault rifles" is a definition used in the military and firearms world, and was basically defined in 1944, by Adolph Hitler!
"Machine gun" is also a legal term, defined in law, back in 1934!

And just what "Assault weapons" would those be, Joe?

they referred to 5.56 M4 carbine as a "Machine Gun"...

Any firearm that has a full auto capability
is a machine gun, under US law.
I suggest you do some further research, and reconsider the accuracy of your opinions.
