It also downplays the severity of the assault charge; he was convicted of felony assault with attempt (maybe they mean intent?) to do great bodily harm, and not just simple "assault." The firearms charge is use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, so let's be clear: the attack on the kid is the primary offense here, not just something something gun and something something assault like it's no big deal.
