The anti-gun politimedia wasted no time at all demonizing the most common rifle in the United States as being the real villain of the Islamic terrorist attack on Pulse nightclub in Orlando.
Newsweek screamed, “ORLANDO SHOOTING PUTS SPOTLIGHT ON AR-15 RIFLE.”
Judd Legume of Think Progress squeaked, “The NRA’s Love Affair With The AR-15, Weapon Of Choice For Mass Murderers, In 22 Tweets.”
Always wrong Christopher Ingraham of the Washington Post whined, “The gun used in the Orlando shooting is becoming mass shooters’ weapon of choice.”
Here’s the thing.
The rifle used by the Islamist terrorist in Orlando was not an AR-15.

I thought they were wrong saying the shooter used an AR-15 but did not see any media corrections.
Libtards’ war on AR15 means everything is either an AR15 or a machine gun.
“He had a Glock that held several clips”. - B.H. Obama
A partially eaten Pop tart is a Glock.
On the Media Handgun Identification Chart, is the handgun identified as an AR-15 the actual Glock?
And now we learn the shooter was a turd-burglar himself.
It could have been an SAA in Colts 45 and it would be an AR-15.
To the crazy Left AR 15 means all rifles and handguns
There could be an extensive FR thread to document all the absolutely asinine, incorrect statements made by the dems, the msm regarding firearms and their capabilities.
The American people know this and dismiss it.
Aw, come on. It was a black gun, that’s all the matters.
I love the graphic at the site! I’d like one of those AR-15s in the left column, 3rd one down. You know, the one that looks like a Barrett BMG.
I would not be surprised to learn that DOJ knew of this and did nothing to stop it. Orchestrated crisis.
Whether it was an AR-15 or a Sig Sauer MCX carbine, THEY ARE BOTH BLACK AND SCARY LOOKING, that's all that matters to a dumbass, nevershotevenabbgun liberal.
I'm not sure FR has enough server space for that. Seriously.
The important thing is that they are both black and scary looking!
That's enough.
Yes. Perhaps instructed by someone to perform this “act of jihad” to cleanse his sins?
At this point, what difference does it make?
Detective........Question???
How did killer Omar Mateen get his Sig Sauer assault riffle into the night club.
People saw him before going into the club, no gun was mentioned
Witnesses say Omar was drinking alone for approximately an hour before the shootings occurred, again no gun was mentioned.
Would like to know the answer to the assault riffle question.
It depends on the meaning of "same", I guess.
The Mini-14 is kind of the same thing, too. In fact, any rifle which fires the .223 is kind of the same thing.
And any gun which is magazine-fed is kind of the same thing. Which means the Glock is kind of the same thing as an AR15.
Anti-gunners will continue to target the AR-15 until somehow every remaining gun is NOT the same. Then they will target something else.
