Because anyone needs a few hundred rounds a minute for hunting or personal defense of course. Wonder if there's a path to sanity by attacking the proponents of these things obvious lack of skill (spray and pray) that they need to compensate for. Can't let anyone question their abilities right?
At that level of ammosexual, it's not just compensating for the fact that they're a terrible shot anymore
The most ridiculous part about it to me is that you lose any semblance of accuracy with it. Not only is it not necessary for hunting or home defense, I'd argue it is not useful.
Its use is that is probably pretty fun to fire at a shooting range, and very useful if you want to fire into a crowd of people and indiscriminately kill as many as you can.
