It's Automatic as Far as "Authorized Journalists" are Concerned

“The gunman...shot himself in the head with an automatic rifle at the restaurant. He was taken to a hospital where he died three hours later.”—ABC News
“The suspected shooter, reportedly using an automatic weapon…”—CarsonNow.org
“A man with an automatic rifle opened fire at an IHOP restaurant in Nevada's capital on Tuesday”—MSNBC
 
Anybody wanna bet?
 
The cops have doubts, if the "Authorized Journalists" do not:
Officials were analyzing the assault rifle to determine whether it is automatic or semi-automatic.
Does the window damage look consistent with "automatic"?
 
Ah well, I guess it serves a higher purpose...

    The local media here in the Volksrepublik of Kollyvornia are going so far as to use the dreaded "AK47" boogeyman.
