Interesting quote from the 3rd debate by Kerry

Kerry quote: ""I was hunting in Iowa last year with a sheriff from one of the counties there, and he pointed to a house in back of us, and said, "See the house over? We just did a drug bust a week earlier, and the guy we arrested had an AK-47 lying on the bed right beside him.""

Seems to me the ban he wanted extended was already in affect a year ago, so this re-affirms that it had little or no effect on criminals.

Kerry's use of the term "AK-47" is calculated. It has become a buzzword among the anti-gun crowd. It matters not that the fully automatic AK-47 was not covered under the recently expired "Assault Weapon" law.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I cannot recall when a real, automatic, AK-47 was used during a crime in the United States.
