Last night when Kerry was asked about the assault weapons ban he told a story ostensibly told to him by a cop who encountered a criminal with an AK-47. He gave this anecdote to illustrate why Bush should've acted to renew the ban on assault weapons. But he forgot something.
If the assault weapons ban was so great, then why did the criminal have the AK-47 in the first place?
