Rick, are you saying that you feel safer with semi-auto weapons in the community? You feel safer with a gun? Where do you live
You should feel safer without them. It didn't mean you couldn't own a firearm, it just meant that you couldn't have one that shoots many multi-rounds a minute. I can shoot almost as many rounds with my leaver-action rifle, and with about as much accuracy, than I could with my semi-auto. Mostly because the semi-auto had less rounds in the mag than my leaver-action.
I don't particularly feel safer having a gun. I would hate to be in a situation where I needed a gun to protect myself either. It certainly isn't why I have them!
Cheers Peter
