Complete ignorance. It's not easy - AT ALL - even if you have a select fire trigger group - you would also need a bolt, bolt carrier, AND mill the lower receiver to accept the trigger group.

The guy on the program tried to educate him, but he remains willfully ignorant (or worse) - no slack warranted.

Then it's okay if we all go out and get fully automatic weapons?

(No, you really just want to take semis, don't you? THAT'S why you say it "barely matters". If it "barely matters" why is there this multimillion dollar regulatory and enforcement scheme to keep the number of legal machineguns in private hands frozen at 1986 levels?)
