Since 1934, only two murders have been committed with registered machine guns

Since 1934, there appear to have been at least two homicides committed with legally owned automatic weapons. One was a murder committed by a law enforcement officer (as opposed to a civilian). On September 15th, 1988, a 13-year veteran of the Dayton, Ohio police department, Patrolman Roger Waller, then 32, used his fully automatic MAC-11 .380 caliber submachine gun to kill a police informant, 52-year-old Lawrence Hileman. Patrolman Waller pleaded guilty in 1990, and he and an accomplice were sentenced to 18 years in prison. The 1986 'ban' on sales of new machine guns does not apply to purchases by law enforcement or government agencies.

SHHH! Don't tell the liberals, they'll try to dispute this and say "You don't need a full auto weapon to hunt elk!" To which I always answer: "No, but I do to match the tyrannical shock troops that may one day try to rule over me."

What was the 2nd one? I didn't click the link. :)

Obviously we should ban .380 MAC-11s, but allow everything else to be purchased. [LOL]

Weird that the two murders were committed by roughly the same guns.

I didn't know this.

Easy there-this could just add fuel to the "Registration of all firearms" debate.
"Well if we just register ALL of them then crime will drop, see only 2 NFA items were ever used in a crime"........................
