What is the difference between a full automatic weapon and a semi-automatic weapon and which one is legal in the US?
A fully automatic weapon means you can hold down the trigger and it will continuously fire. Semiautomatic means you fire one round for each pull of the trigger. A selective fire weapon is capable of fully automatic fire, and lets you select between the two. To own a fully automatic weapon in the US, you need a Class III National Firearms Act tax stamp for the firearm. The importation of fully automatic weapons for civilian sales was barred in 1968, and the domestic manufacture of fully automatic weapons for civilian sales was barred in 1986 - however, weapons of either type manufactured before the effective date of their import/manufacture can still legal be transferred between licenced civilian owners.

Can you legally own an automatic firearm in Ohio?
If you mean fully automatic (machine gun), yes- BUT- you must meet all Federal requirements under the National Firearms Act. This means that the transfer of the weapon to you must have been approved by the BATFE, and the $200 transfer tax paid. Ordinary semi-auto fireams are permitted.
Why can police officers carry a fully loaded automatic weapon without having a federal tax stamp?
The Federal Tax Stamp you mention is required by the National Firearms Act for the transfer of ownership of a machinegun from one private citizen to another. The law creates an exemption for law enforcement AGENCIES, and the military. The police officer does not OWN the automatic weapon- his department does- and it is registered to his department. Whether or not it is loaded is not relevant to the law.
