Automatic Weapons Aren't Semiautos, Your Honor

Over at Cato.org, they're pointing out a mistake that Justice Stevens made in his book, and apparently was corrected for his op-ed in the post. He mistakenly points to the 'automatic' weapons used in school shootings, when there were no such weapons. Says Cato about why this is important:

"the gun control crowd often shows a pronounced ignorance of how guns work and which guns are actually illegal, which certainly doesn't help when they try to make their case for more strict controls."
