Listening to Fox News, the gun the shooter used has been identified as an SKS with 7.62 X 39 ammo, with a scope, and called a "high powered rifle."
Of course an SKS is not high powered, or particularly accurate....but the ignorance, fear, and bias of the Media--even on Fox--is already coming out--to pound the drum against the 2nd Amendment.

SKS with a scope? Well, that’s why he couldn’t hit anything, right there. Thank God they are stupid.

I’ve got a single action .22 WMR revolver that makes one heck of a little fireball every time you fire a round. Is it ‘high powered’? </sarcasm>

Is a 22lr with a hot load high powered? To a reporter, a slingshot is a 'high powered assault weapon'.................

Original stories said an M4. I'm sure they meant the semi M4gery since they don't know what they're talking about.
Any semi auto rifle is an EBR (Evil Black Rifle).

My slingshot is high powered.
To: AnalogReigns
The 7.62x39 is actually an intermediary round between a rifle and pistol round.

I thought Washington D.C. was a ‘gun free zone’...where did this idiot Bernie fan get his gun???
What about San. Fran. this morning, also another ‘gun free zone’ where did he get his gun???
The gun doesn’t kill people, it’s the idiot pulling the trigger that kills people...
IDIOT DEMOCRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any rifle cartridge above .22LR is considered “high powered” per the BATF.
