Semi auto is no less dangerous than fully auto, but again it's good to know your facts so the extremists don't dismiss your arguments right off the bat. (It's recently come to my attention two pages back that they can now be modified into almost fully auto, assault style, but I digress).
It's extremely rare for non-military and police personnel to acquire a fully auto weapon, or a true assault rifle like the M16 or AK-47.

Boy would they find my ideas of what a legal gun should be as crazy.
