More Virginians think semiautos should be banned than autos?

Huh? The response to these questions really makes me question how much knowledge these respondents have about guns. This makes no sense.

This is a Hampton University Center for Public Policy Statewide Survey of 805 likely voters.
Q13. Do you think there should be a federal ban on automatic rifles?
Yes 52.8%
No 42.7%
Don't know/Refused 4.6%
TOTAL 100%

Q14. How about semi-automatic rifles? Should there be a federal ban on semi-automatic rifles?
Yes 65.7%
No 27.1%
Don't know/Refused 7.1%
TOTAL 100%
