Kind of. Not sure I'd phrase it like that, it's less that I want to argue that we should have them, it's more that I fail to see why we shouldn't have them. If automatic weapons were legal here then, sure that restriction makes sense. But they aren't, so that whole part of it has always been kind of whatever to me. You ask what's the justification for them being legal, I ask what's the justification for them being illegal. That's not a hill I'd die on, just one of the quirks of the system that's always made me roll my eyes a bit
