Frankly this thread has turned into politics and its now a case of 'I don't believe in semis, so no one should have one' vs 'we are owners for legal purposes, have been vetted by the Police and aren't imposing our view on others, so leave us alone'.
Wired's post is a gem, I thought it was piss take at first, but now it is the personification of hypocrisy. ie I have one for an insufficient purpose, but no one else should have the same right.
Some absolute bullsh*t opinions posted here based on a few instances of bad firearms handling skills with semi.
I've seen more bad handling skills from bolt action rifles by the 2 weekend a year hunters than I have ever seen by any other type.
Its not the gun, its the idiot at the trigger end that is the issue.
A semi in the wrong hands is no different to a lever action or pump. Do you want to ban those as well?
The antis and Police HQ must be loving it, firearms owners dictating to other ones what they should be allowed to own for legal purposes.
Divide and conquer boys...you are doing their job for them.
