Kinda silly to reduce the argument to one if what antis see as semantics. Semi Auto or full auto doesn't matter to them since its still essentially the same gun. I can fire my rifle on semi as fast as many full autos so what's the difference in their eyes. Its like making a big deal out of Clips vs. Magazines.....everyone knows what you're referring to when either term is used in conversation so why waste breath arguing the difference in terms with a person who doesn't care enough about the subject to give a darn.
