I understand the point you are attempting to make but your wording is wrong and it's people like you who spread the incorrect language that others pick up on and then they continue to do the same.

If you want to talk gun laws, do a little research and use the proper terms so as to not confuse others with incorrect information. We get enough of that from the news.
"An assault firearm is defined as any semi-automatic center-fire rifle or pistol that expels single or multiple projectiles by action of an explosion of a combustible material and is equipped at the time of offence with a magazine which will hold more than 20 rounds of ammunition or designed by the manufacturer to accommodate a silencer or equipped with a folding stock."

so... like an assault rifle. "expels single" = semi auto. Anything full auto is referred to as a machine gun. taken from state police website

granted I'm no gun nut so I could still be wrong, I am simply intrigued guns seem to be the easiest fucking thing to get in this country
