The problem with semi-auto guns

The problem I have with semi-auto guns is that they're quite already close to being fully automatic deathmachines. My friend had bought a semi auto rifle and WITH A SHOESTRING changed it to fully auto. I think we should ban semi auto firearms also.

    If I had a choice between a semi-automatic rifle and a full, I would choose the semi. Without hesitation and every time. Full auto is a pointless and almost useless feature in nearly every application and use other than suppression fire in combat. Full auto is a waste of ammunition (do you know how long those "dangerous" 30 round mags last on full auto with a cyclic rate of 600-700 rpm), target acquisituion and proper aim is lost, and they are murder on the system as far as heat, wear and tear. The only people who think that rate of fire, magazine size, or accessories are what make a firearm "super lethal" are the same twats who think that the AR and AK platforms are "high-powered rifles". In other words, they watch way too many movies, watch WAY too much television news and action shows, and know little to nothing about the things that terrify them into fear-based reactions.
