They used AK47s
But, but, they are illegal in California.
I’m shocked
They used a rifle that shoots the same round as an AK. It may or may not have been an AK. The media just had to toss that in to vilify semi-auto firearms. I heard one guy out of Washington say it was an "automatic" weapon. He is full of crap clear up past his ears. He did not say this out of ignorance, he just bluntly lied. We still need to call them each and every time on their lies.
