What I'm saying is there are times when they need to seek and destroy an enemy who is heavily armed.
When was the last time automatic weapons were used against police? Serious question, I don't think I've ever heard of it happening, I know it has though.

The North Hollywood Shootout. Seventeen years ago. And I guess the Stockton bank robbery last week where the police shot a human shield LINK

Automatic versus semi-automatic? Doesn't really matter. The question would be better phased as large caliber weapons versus a handgun.
That being said, the LA Bank robbers had automatic weapons. The crazies in Waco had automatic weapons. Several militia types have had shootouts with police using automatic weapons. So it does happen. But not very often, if ever, in the hood. More the crazy white boys that sling machine guns around.
