We don't legally get those, some do, legally or otherwise.
We do get high capacity rapid fire tactical weaponry with no civilian utility purpose justification.
A major part of the problem is a country absolutely awash on unaccountable firearms, it's easier to get a firearm than to vote or get laid, legally or otherwise. If we keep doing what we are doing, we continue to get what we are getting.

Nope! The M16A4 and the M4 are select fire weapons but they don't have the capability or full auto. They can fire semi-auto or 3 round bursts only.

Quite so. It makes my point about ready access regardless of competence or accountability. Alabama and Georgia are two states that serve as suppliers for anyone in states that restrict firearm commerce /ownership.

I don't know how we undo this mess we've created for ourselves with oversupply and lack of effective accountability, but it's unacceptable.

This country has proved time and again we can't be trusted with weapons and the right won't fund mental health constrictions on access to weapons.
Fuck it, take the tools of carnage out of our hands like Australia and any other first world country has.
