Crimes with assault weapons increased since the ban?
KABA is reporting that:
According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, crimes committed with so-called "assault weapons" actually increased after the ban was implemented. In 1991, 8 percent of criminals admitted to having owned a military-style rifle. Less than 1 percent had used it in the commission of their crime.
In 2001, the Bureau of Justice Statistics revealed that about 2 percent of inmates had a military-style weapon during the commission of their crime.
