The problem there is that most drugs take a fair while to be metabolised, hence you'd get people going to work without even realising they were high.
Even if the second part of this were true, how would it be any different from the current situation? It's not like drug use doesn't exist now, or that all drug users are unemployed. And in the case of Portugal, drug use has actually gone down since their decriminalization policy went into effect; one would would think that lower drug use would result in fewer people going to work high (which I'd argue is quite rare to begin with, and would/does result in job loss as soon as the person was/is caught being high at work).

Erm, no it's not. All an assault rifle is defined as is a rifle with selective fire and a clip capacity above 10. It doesn't have to be automatic, and most armed forces actually utilise versions which don't have full auto capability.
A semi-automatic rifle does not have selective fire capability, ergo, it's not an assault rifle. And it's also not a requirement that any assault rifle use
clips, since they all must have detachable
magazines in order to fit the definition (yes, there is a difference between clips and magazines; the former feeds ammunition into the latter, which feeds ammunition into the chamber). Anyway, there's no requirement or restriction on magazine (or clip, for that matter) capacity for an assault rifle. There is, however, a cartridge
size restriction, which means that a FAL (which was mentioned previously) isn't an assault rifle even if it does have selective fire (and the overwhelming majority of them for sale in the US, don't).
