The other night on the FOX News O’Reilly Factor Geraldo Rivera called the weapon used in Orlando an AR15 Assault rifle and referred to it as either a fully automatic or a machine gun - I can’t recall the exact phrasing.
Eric Bolling sort of corrected him a little by saying the AR15 was not an assault rifle but let the fact that the muslim killer didn’t use an AR15 and that the AR15 isn’t fully automatic go without rebuttal.
Their inability to differentiate between a Sig MCX and an AR15 is somewhat irrelevant in light of the event. It’s a weak defense at the very least. We should be focused on the the statistics, not the semantics. IMHO.
