The new definition would be that ANY semi-auto is not good.

Can you tell me the difference between AP and non AP ammo? Is a 30-06 or .308 armor piercing? Against a kevlar vest? You bet. Is there a big difference between 7.62x54 and .35 Remmington? Aren't both copper jacketed high power rifle ammo?

Will we have to ban all metal jacketed ammo? Maybe they should ban everything except black powder muzzle loaders. Maybe even go back to flintlocks
