That is a LOAD of BS..... There is NEVER as reason for Civilian Law

United States of America.

You probably heard about the Northridge bank robbery in LA in 1997.
http://www.emergency.com/lapdbank.htm If I recall correctly, the
LEOs had to go to a local gun shop for more firepower.

That "more firepower" was for deer rifles so the cops could shoot
through the body armor - not for fully auto weapons.

That's more than 10 years ago, and the LA bad guys have gotten better
armed since then. Maybe full auto is for exceptional occasions, but
the LEOs do get outgunned on occasion.

Like when? A scumbag pulls out a so-called assault weapon from his
britches and shoots a cop? About the only place where one can carry
such a weapon is in the car - and that's what happened in FL, a few
months ago when such a scumbag shot a cop dead.

And BTW, the scumbag's "assault rifle" won't shoot through the cop's
body armor.


Most likely,a rifle will penetrate SBA.
most police soft body armor(SBA) is only rated for HANDGUN rounds,not
7.62x39 or .223,and I suspect few if any officers wear a trauma plate.
SWAT wears the heavy body armor.

I was surprised to read that the N.Hollywood robbers also had trauma plates
over their vitals in their HOMEMADE body armor.

the N.Holllywood robbers had an AK-47 in 7.62x39,an AR-15 in .223,and a HK-
41 in .308,all illegally modified for full-auto.
They all will penetrate standard LEO SBA.
