DC Mayor Says Semi-Autos are Illegal

To show the lack of understanding in the DC government, one must only go to their website, in which the mayor has released a statement that semi-automatic handguns will still "generally" be banned in the city.

For those who are not familiar with guns, many do not know what semi-automatic means.  It means one pull of the trigger is required for each shot.  These types of handguns used to actually be called "automatic" but once smaller machine guns came out the "semi" was added.  

Just about any handgun made in the last 100 years is a semi-auto, including revolvers and those fed with a magazine.
