agreed, colt 1911's and their clones may be the safest of semi auto handguns...but as a type, semi autos are more dangerous than revolvers. particularly in the hands of an inexperienced individual, due to a lack of visibility as to weather the thing is loaded or not.
You cannot lump DA semiautos in with SA semiautos, like the 1911. Vast differences, which probably doesn't concern you, as you seem adept at spouting off concerning things about which you are grossly uninformed.
Answer this honestly, if you can. A 5 year old child (inexperienced enough for you?) picks up a loaded handgun, in a roomful of people, and begins pointing it around, as a child would do. You're in front of that gun. Would you rather it was a loaded DA revolver, which only requires that the trigger be pulled to fire (no physical safety), a chambered Glock, which requires only a trigger pull as well, or a 1911, which requires hammer cocking, squeezing of the grip safety, AND releasing the manual safety ? A child will likely tire of it before he figures out how to make it go bang. The point? All semi autos are not created equal. Stick to what you know, ed, acetylene and oxygen.
