a highly suspect quote..
The incident took place inside the PCL library when a man entered the building with an automatic weapon and opened fire on the sixth floor before fatally shooting himself, UT Public Information Officer Rhonda Weldon said.
not saying it wasn't... Just saying that those aren't as plentifull and readily available as the fear mongers would have you believe.

Perhaps, but a majority of the public (that I can imagine) thinks that all AK-47s are fully automatic rifles.
Or its just the reporter adding a bit of drama to an already bad situation and making us gun-owners look even worse.

1 eyewitness reports 3 shot automatic bursts being fired and then says I know nothing about guns. [Bang]
Could have been a home made lighting link or something. They are retarded easy to make and if you are just going to kill yourself like a pussy anyway....

The wasa my thought as well. I even read it out loud at work and nobody I work with understood why I was having a problem with the statement.
I think it's another firearms demonizing attempt. You know; officially it's something like: Semi-automatic is a form of "automatic", isn't it, so they were just being succinct. When the reality is that they were trying to make it sound like the guy had a fully automatic, cop-killing, baby splattering, granny raping, ultra ballistic over and under with attached sidewinders and tomahawks and electronic countermeasures "assault rifle".
