But automatics and semi-automatics? Really? Those are necessary to your life? You really think that your second amendment rights being infringed when you can't spray 60,000 bullets a minute at the beer can on your fence?
I do find the whole carry a rifle with you deal ridiculous, I can understand the draw of carrying a pistol perhaps in the US but if you need the range of a rifle you should probably just run the fuck away, they probably won't be expert marksmen fucking with you.
I'm not really sure why being automatic or semi automatic is a big deal though, the alternatives went out of date in WW2. Well other than shotguns which will ruin your day just as fast a full automatic.
