When the president surrounds himself with children while giving his announcement that reasonable gun control measures are necessary, bear in mind that those ‘assault rifles‘ the government is sure to be going after were not even used in the Newton, Connecticut elementary shooting. As NBC admits in the video above, four handguns were used to carry out that despicable atrocity. This directly contradicts other reports.

Why is the LEO handling the “long gun” with his bare hands?
My guess: It’s his gun.
most of the time that’s true.
with all the variants out there,I’ve seen side chargers,too.
Not that it matters. All guns are evil, those are just more evil this month.
Nice juxtaposition.
Sucks to live in NY now ...

You are exactly right ,,, ARs do not have a side action bolt . Any assault rifle with a pistol grip to the Mean Streak Media is an AR-15 in their book .
Facts???!!! Since when has Big Media or Dem pols i.e demagogues ever let facts get in the way of a good story?
I’d rather not watch a video, I rarely do, what did it say?
Its Paul Vance (CT State Police) describing the weapons used (AR-15) and that the gun in the trunk of the car was a SHOTGUN.
This should take long to verify. The police report is in the public domain. A FOIA request may be necessary to get it, but the police can’t keep it secret.
4 handguns and probably none of themhad 30 round assault magazines. When we still thought he used a Bushmaster as initially reported and as maintained for a while, we all pointed out that it were just as likely he would use a couple of pistols to do the same thing. Well...

Someone posted a similar thread just this morning:

Seeing as the information in both reports is old and inaccurate, I don’t see why we need two threads a day on it.
He actually said “long gun”, not “big gun”, so he was using an accurate technical term, but one that includes both rifles and shotguns, so it invites confusion. He later clarified that by saying specifically the wounds were caused by the rifle.
They did ask whether the rifle was found in the trunk at the same press conference, and it was stated that was not accurate.
“How did the medical examiner make a determination so fast and why was he casually announcing it to the media?”
He performed seven autopsies himself, and supervised the rest, is how he made his determinations, and he was announcing it at a formal press conference with law enforcement present, not casually.

You’ve got it backwards, this is a report from the day after the shooting, misleadingly posted as if it is breaking news. All the major media outlets have long since reported the correct information, but the conspiracy theorists don’t want you to listen to that, they would rather replay one old, inaccurate report.
So NBC is your source of truth???
