Handguns do not qualify.
"Assault" weapon has never been used as in "assaulting" someone, but as in "a squad assaulting an enemy position", implying weapons capable of fully-automatic suppressive fire. Which really is nowhere what civilians can get access... unless you want to spend >$20k on a pre-1986 firearm.

He uses "Taliban" as an image for extremism, where some other would say "nazi". In this case, he refers to "fair use" extremist who want the latest episode of their favorite show never to buffer, even if this mean slowing down other.

Pretty much the same idea here. Startup didn't mind me fixing bug at 3 am, but wanted me at the office by 9 am. I left.
The worst part is probably the fact that I got a raise when I stopped caring about the company altogether, and took 2 month for a 15 days job...
