Again: an "assault weapon," aka "semiauto rifle," doesn't fire any faster than your Glock. It fires and cycles as quickly as your finger pulls the trigger. A full automatic weapon, which sprays bullets while you hold down the trigger, is legal (but expensive) and would never be considered for home defense. Owners of full auto weapons are primarily corporations and collectors.

Wait a second. An assault rifle is banned, but a rapid fire 'spray' automatic weapon isn't? What the fark is up with that?
