In Miami, authorities say the proliferation of assault weapons led to an increase in killings, from 56 in 2005 to 79 in 2006 and 86 so far in 2007.
"You just pull a trigger and 20 or 30 rounds come in a second and in those 20 rounds you're sure to hit your intended target and some innocent bystanders, totally unlike a firearm that is just one bullet every time you pull the trigger," Miami Police spokesman Willie Moreno said.
I would like them to prove that statement,how many of the firearms used were actually full auto or select fire,i bet very few to none and if they were they had been illegally converted,or stolen.

.I watch the next 48 and never have any of the homicides in florida they showed involved an automatic weapon,most of them involve handguns or knives.
It is said that if you line up all the cars in the world end-to-end, someone would be stupid enough to try to pass them
