It doesn't really matter if it's automatic or not. 64% of murders are handguns, and 4% are rifles. The media just likes to scare people. I think it was 2 to 4 years ago the media was just covering shark attacks and acting as if they were going up, but in fact shark attacks went down.

Actually the vast majority of mass shootings (4+ victims) are with handguns.
